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.
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.
The last day for guaranteed Christmas delivery of our gift membership pack is Thursday 12 December, but you can still treat someone to a gift membership after that date.
