Give a Gift Membership to the National Trust

 
 

 

The National Trust has been conserving the nation’s treasures for over a hundred years. Give a National Trust Gift Membership and you'll help preserve & protect some of the UK's most beautiful & historic places and help in the work the National Trust does, such as preserving ancient trees, or its project to revive traditional orchards across England, preserving historic monuments & places or to work looking after nature & wildlife.   

For every roof that’s restored, every acre of land cared for, every time a work of art is conserved, or every orchard that’s brought back to life so that it can blossom again, well, members are part of that and have contributed towards it.

There are Christmas lights and illuminations, markets and winter fairs, and you could also visit Father Christmas at many properties! There are Christmas craft workshops to learn how to create colourful decorations and memorable gifts.  There are the historic houses themselves, decked out all ready for Christmas - many will take you back in time to times past and Christmas from years past!  Find out more...

Of course all these things need to be carefully preserved and some need restoring and  it’s good that the Trust has experts to do this sensitive and vital work.

So even if you are sitting at home, wishing you could head off to places and explore, members can find joy in the fact that they are making a difference.  In fact, every National Trust membership is a lifeline for countryside, coastline, historic sites, green spaces and the people who care for them
