Welcome

Welcome to the County Durham Centre of the National Trust. Members of the National Trust (including our friends from the National Trust for Scotland) and volunteers are assured of a warm welcome to this particularly active association.

The Centre was established in 1970, and our members are widely drawn from the old geographical County between the Tyne and Tees. We enjoy an active programme of some 25 events each year, which includes summer outings, varied social events, talks, holidays and short breaks. 

As a voluntary association of National Trust members and volunteers, we strongly support the National Trust, and are proud to have contributed to many local projects, including those at Lindisfarne, Wallington, Gibside, Washington Old Hall, Souter Light, and Seaton Delaval.
