Pages for places
Discover how you are following in Beatrix Potter's footsteps with this conservation-themed display.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Head upstairs in Tabitha Twitchit's Bookshop to discover the impact that you have when you donate to, or buy from, National Trust second-hand bookshops.
Every National Trust second-hand bookshop raises money for our conservation efforts. Every book that you donate, or buy, from Tabitha Twitchit's Bookshop contributes to the conservation work in the Lake District. This display explores the conservation work done in our indoor and outdoor places, and how, like Beatrix Potter, you're contributing to the care of these special places for everyone, forever.
