Be part of saving our heritage

Every building we rescue, every space we bring back to life, and every child who discovers something new in one of our venues, it’s all made possible by people like you. However you choose to help, you become a guardian of Richmondshire’s heritage, protecting it for the generations to come.

There’s a way for everyone to get involved:

DONATE

Give a gift, and watch it work twice

A donation to RBPT does more than fix a roof or restore a window. Because we reinvest the income our venues earn, your gift helps sustain a model that will protect Richmondshire’s heritage for decades. Give a single gift or become a monthly guardian and provide the steady support that lets us plan ahead and take on more.

If you’re a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid adds 25% to your donation at no extra cost to you.

VOLUNTEER & FUNDRAISE

Give your time, share your skills, have some fun

Our work simply wouldn’t happen without our volunteers. From welcoming visitors and helping at events to lending professional skills or getting hands-on with a project, there’s a role to suit your time and talents, and a warm, friendly community to join.

Feeling energetic? Take on a challenge, hold a bake sale, or dedicate your next celebration to RBPT. However you raise it, every pound goes straight into saving local heritage, and we’ll cheer you on the whole way.

CORPORATE & PARTNERSHIPS

Partner with a charity your community loves

Partnering with RBPT is good for heritage and good for business. Whether through sponsorship, corporate giving, gifts in kind, or a team volunteering day at one of our sites, your organisation can make a visible, local difference, and share in the story of saving Richmondshire’s heritage.

We’ll work with you to build a partnership that fits your goals, from brand visibility and staff engagement to meaningful CSR that your customers and colleagues can see and feel proud of.

LEGACY & MAJOR GIFTS

LEGACY & MAJOR GIFTS

Leave a legacy that stands for generations

Some gifts shape the future. A gift in your will, of any size, helps ensure that the buildings and stories that make Richmondshire special are here for your grandchildren, and theirs. It costs nothing today, and leaves something that lasts.

If you’re able to make a major gift, or would like to become a Patron or Friend of the Trust, we’d love to talk. These special relationships let you see your support transform a building, and a community, first-hand.

Thank you. Whatever you give, money, time, skills or support, you’re helping write the next chapter of Richmondshire’s story.
