The National Trust continues to detract from democratic voting. Members have made their concerns clear. It is a shame that the National Trust refuses to listen. Sign up on our website for news of our campaign.

“Whatever the theoretical arguments in favour of quick vote, its practical consequences are plain. It is to convert a system of election into a system of co-option by the trustees.”.-Jonathan Sumption. Sign up on our website for news of our campaign.🔗

There is no argument that we do not have the means to restore Clandon. So why do representatives of the National Trust persist in saying it is not possible?

A robust, fair voting system needs to be simple. Free from powerful nudges such as the quick vote. The National Trust is no exception.

The Quick Vote encourages members to vote for the management's choices by ticking just one box. Members should be trusted to know who and what they are voting for.

1/2.It is sad to see the Baker family 'forced out' of their home by unnecessary rent increases by the NT, and exclusion of visitors to experience the beauty of Owletts to a meagre two days a year. Read more here 👇.

The National Trust has become dangerously focused on the politics of the day, moving the goal post further away from its original mission, to preserve our heritage. If Clandon is not safe, where is?. Read more👇.

The National Trust has the means to restore Clandon Park, instead of letting it languish in ruin. This ignores the desires of its members, with the controversial "quick vote" to the AGM voting process further solidifying such decisions. Responsibility rests with the NT leaders.

The encroachment into political areas by the National Trust and the diversion of resources from their original objective is disheartening. It's especially distressing to see dedicated volunteers feeling undervalued. Read more stories here👇.

The National Trust received a £63 million insurance pay-out, with unrestricted reserves of £366 million. We believe that this money should be used to bring Clandon's glorious staterooms by Giacomo Leoni back to life. Read more here 👇.

Last year, a “Quick Vote” was introduced on the AGM voting papers, encouraging voters to tick a box to vote in line with all the recommendations of the Trustees and of the Nominations Committee. This is little more than a rubber-stamping exercise for what the management wants.
