FROM beautiful, natural landscapes where wildlife can flourish to historic buildings that shaped our past, the North West is home to places that really matter to us.
The National Trust has been protecting nature, beauty and history at unique and inspiring places since 1895. Looking after these much-loved places costs more than £100 million a year. Gifts left by supporters in their wills make a lot of this work possible. Here are just some of the ways gifts in wills are helping National Trust places in the North West to thrive for people and nature...
QUARRY BANK, CHESHIRE
At Quarry Bank, industrial heritage sits alongside picturesque gardens and countryside. Discover what it was like to work in a cotton mill and find out about the life and legacy of founder Samuel Greg.
Here, gifts in wills have been vital in helping the conservation charity to make improvements inside and out. On the landing above the stair hall in Quarry Bank House you might spot a Victorianera rocking horse that the Greg children used to enjoy. It has slowly returned to its former glory through specialist restoration work thanks to a gift in a will.
