You can't say The National Trust is marginalising England's heritage, Kevin, it's HEAVING with heritage! :0) You want to take a look at some of the wonderful books we sell, for a start...let alone all the old skills that The National Trust is teaching young people, ensuring that everything 'lives on'....They're a wonderful organisation.

I just found this..

"..With the library at the heart of the strategy, some will say that there is no need to define the focus of the organisation too strongly, but if the EFDSS is to rekindle its membership (at one time it had more members than The National Trust) people need to know what they are joining and why...."

I doubt that. The National Trust has more members than all the major political parties of this country added together.
