The Lord Wilson Heritage Trust was established in December 1992, following the enactment of an Ordinance bearing the same name, to provide an opportunity for the community to express its appreciation of the contribution made to Hong Kong by Lord Wilson during his term as Governor of Hong Kong, and to join hands further to promote the preservation and conservation of Hong Kong's heritage.

The main function of the Board of Trustees is to manage the investment of the Trust capital and related financial matters so as to ensure that a steady income will be enerated to finance the Trust's activities. The Board also decides on broad policy matters and gives direction on how the objects of the Trust should be met.

The Council on the other hand is concerned with the execution of the Board's decisions, and the implementation of activities for promoting heritage preservation and conservation in Hong Kong.
