Become a member
As a member, you’ll help protect many of our nation’s favourite places for future generations. Every penny goes towards looking after nature, beauty and history – for everyone, for ever.
Life Membership:
Take out a life membership with the National Trust to explore more than 500 places and enjoy a lifetime of benefits. Gardens bursting with colour, castles and houses with stories to tell and countryside trails leading you down an undiscovered path – you never know which place will win your heart. What’s more, your membership will help us to keep these places special for everyone, for ever.
Benefits of being a National Trust life member:
Free entry to more than 500 places in our care.
Free parking at most National Trust car parks.
National Trust Handbook, full of information about the places we look after.
National Trust Magazine three times a year, packed with inspiration, interviews and news.
Access to the online Members’ Area, full of first-look previews and behind-the-scenes features.
Senior Membership:
To say a big thank you to our loyal members and to make sure everybody can continue to enjoy the places they love, the National Trust offers a 25 per cent senior concession. We currently give nearly one million senior members the concession off our adult rates.
You're the bedrock of the National Trust – with your support, we can keep looking after nature, beauty and history for ever. The most important thing for us is to make sure you can afford to continue your membership and that is why we’re happy to offer this concession.
Senior membership concession
If you're an existing member aged 60 or over, and you've been a member for at least the last three consecutive years, you can ask for 25 per cent off your subscription. This means that you’ll pay £63.00 for individual senior membership and £104.40 for joint senior membership.
We can’t currently process senior membership applications online or at our places, but we can do so over the phone. To let us know that you’d like the senior membership concession, call 0344 800 1895.
If you pay by Direct Debit, make sure you give us a ring before your next payment date.
Why don't you update the price automatically?
Not every member wishes to be given the concession, so we leave it up to you to decide if you want it or not. If you decide not to take the concession, at least £19 extra per year will go towards protecting more green spaces and looking after our nation's heritage.

Some Christmas gifts are impossible to wrap. Dramatic views of coast and countryside. Tranquil moments in gardens and parks. Discovering hidden secrets in historical homes. When you give someone a National Trust membership for Christmas, they get all this and more.
