Our latest appeal is our Dyrham appeal. Dyrham Park contains ornamental gardens, rolling parkland and a 17th-century baroque mansion; inside is a collection of Dutch art, rare tapestries and delicate books. Yet behind Dyrham’ s beautiful exterior, its roof and walls are starting to deteriorate, putting these precious collections at risk. We urgently need your help to carry out essential building maintenance, repair and replace the roof and regulate the temperature on the inside.

Other appeals include raising money for our textiles appeal to look after a collection of rare and diverse textiles, for the Lake District to repair stretches of footpaths, and halting 600 years of decay and disrepair at Knole in Kent. Or you might wish to support our For Ever, For Everyone appeal which allows us to use the funds wherever the need is greatest.

£ 10 could buy a bag of sugar to help feed our bees over winter.

£ 20 could purchase one heritage variety apple tree for one of our orchards.

£ 50 could help repair nearly two metres of dry stone walls across our countryside.
