Some gifts are impossible to wrap. Dramatic views of coast and countryside. Tranquil moments in gardens and parks. Hidden secrets in historical homes. When you give someone a National Trust membership for Christmas, they get all this and more.

Why give National Trust membership this Christmas?

It's a gift that means more, opening the door to over 500 places around the UK, including historic houses, windswept coastlines and dramatic countryside. Plus, your gift keeps on giving. Your donation helps us care for hundreds of places, keeping them special for everyone, for ever.
