Autorenporträt
The National Trust was founded in 1895 with the aim of caring for special places, forever, for everyone. Now, over 120 years later, we look after historic houses and gardens, industrial monuments and mills, archaeological sites, nature reserves, coastlines, forests, and more. We have a portfolio of over 28,000 buildings and structures, across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. They include over 300 mansions, 57 entire villages, over 5000 cottages (some tenanted, some used as holiday cottages), farms, bridges, lighthouses and many others. We have built a formidable reputation for the conservation and care of places of natural beauty and historic significance. Even more importantly, we make sure that our places are available to all, with over 17 million visitors to pay-for-entry properties each year. We have 4.4 million members and 62,000 volunteers, who are vital to our work. We are a registered charity and are completely independent of Government, relying on membership fees, donations and legacies, and revenue raised from our commercial operations.
