It's the Season ... to go Sightseeing.
NTG Members enjoy free admission to UK National Trust sites
NTG's Liberation Window at Creasey's Main Department Store. Thank you Creasey's! We've loved doing this.
Selfridges next? Our NTG Liberation window at Creasey's
Fabulous Window Artist Kerry Clarke, asked us to help out with period costume for 1940 Liberation Day celebrations. We put in a call to arms to Gillian Lenfestey, our Costume Curator and here's our proud result.
Very amusingly ... the Ladies Fashion Department have had shoppers asking 'where is the zip up dress ... or, that jacket ... the ones in the window!" ... Thank you Kerry, thank you Creasey's and also thank you to Dowding Signs ... you were all rapid and brilliant!
NTG May Diary ... Rare! Small Group Trips to Jethou 18 May
In response to feed-back from previous trips to Jethou, this year's trip will depart from Herm so that, on return from Jethou, we can gather at the Mermaid for lunch.
Members, friends and family will find their own way over to Herm. Trident departs at 1030. Buz White will ferry us in small groups from Herm Harbour to Jethou. The price of the trip will be £15 per person. Trident Ferry is offering a £1 discount on the Herm return for those showing a NTG card.
There will, however, be room for 12 people to go direct to Jethou and back for the flat fee of £15 (omitting Herm).
Boat direct to Jethou will depart from Inter-Island Quay at 1030. Crossings from Herm Harbour to Jethou will start at approximately 11am.
The early bird catches the worm - numbers are limited. To book, please email Jeanne at jeannelangford@cwgsy.net

President
NTG is a local self-funding charity, independent of The States of Guernsey, and as such is reliant on membership subscriptions, donations and bequests for the funding of its essential programme of maintenance, repair and renovation of its properties and the conservation and preservation of NTG's land. NTG also derives an important part of its income from the rental of its properties which can mean that there is limited access to some of its buildings. However, except for sensitive areas, most NTG lands are freely accessible, providing a valuable opportunity for people to enjoy and appreciate Guernsey’s landscape and coastline.
