Paddington Development Trust

Paddington Development Trust PDT combines community engagement with strategic partnerships — ensuring that local people shape the future of their lives and neighbourhoods.

At PDT, we believe that strong communities are built from the ground up. Over the years we have worked alongside thousands of local people opening up opportunities in employment, skills and qualifications, business start-up, volunteering, and influencing the shape of local education, housing and community infrastructure. We have restored and launched Grand Junction @ Saint Mary Magdalene Church a

Grade 1 Listed Building and new cultural and community arts centre in the heart of the Westbourne Ward, north Paddington, one of the most disadvantaged localities in the UK.
