Membership is open to anyone who has an interest in our National Heritage, be it the countryside or it’s buildings.
What we do
Our nearest National Trust place is Hatfield Forest and, as well as financial support, our members support the Forest through such volunteer activities as stewarding the Shell House, nature surveys and woodland management.
In the past, we have been instrumental in obtaining a Local Heritage grant of almost £24,000 for the Forest.
In recent years, we have raised funds for educational equipment at Hatfield Forest, wild horses and a highland bull for Wicken Fen, oak benches for Coggeshall Grange Barn and a replacement wheelchair for Wimpole Hall. The Centre organises talks, outings, social events, a holiday and fundraising activities.
