A sustainable Christmas
We're dreaming of a sustainable Christmas at Morden Hall Park and exploring ways you can enjoy an environmentally-friendly festive season. Whether that's buying a real Christmas tree or UK sources gifts from our Garden Centre. These small steps all contribute to making a big difference.
Buy second hand
A great sustainable gift idea is to buy second hand. Our Second hand bookshop has an amazing collection of adult and children's fiction and non-fiction titles, plus the odd collectable too. Every penny you spend goes back into caring for the park so you'll be indirectly supporting us this Christmas too.
The gift of membership
Buying experiences or days out is often considered a more environmentally-friendly alternative to buying presents. So why not give the gift of National Trust membership to your friends and loved ones so that they can enjoy our places for free all year round? While they're enjoying their membership, the money from your gift helps us care for these unforgettable places, keeping them special for everyone, for ever.
