"As Katherine Carter shows in this fascinating book, Churchill used his years of exile at Chartwell to rebuild his life and his political career." What a wonderful *full-page* review of 'Churchill's Citadel' in today's Daily Mail. 📰

We're standing up for nature today, as the Trust has long done. Rivers are part of our natural heritage and desperately need reviving

It was a pleasure to show Hilary McGrady and @Tina Lewis around the Diwali display at @KedlestonNT . The vibrant Rangoli, twinkling diya lights, traditional board games and light projections are so joyous🪔 A big thank you to the volunteers, community groups that supported us!

Thank you National Trust for your outstanding leadership in rising to the challenges of the climate & Nature crises. So important to have such an example of ambition being converted into action.

Founded 130 years ago today, the National Trust is going like the clappers. We’re about to restore nature to land one-and-a-half times the size of Greater London.
