We are always encouraged by the support the Trust enjoys from overseas.  A trickle of subscriptions and donations arrives in the post from most calls of the RMS St Helena.

Now we are making a special exhortation to Trust Members and Donors, old and new.

The St Helena National Trust is aiming to step up its involvement with the ever increasing conservation and preservation demands which need to be met if the Island’s natural and built heritage is thrive through and after the changes envisaged by the proposed airport. During the last six months we have been involved with many things – these will be covered in e-newsletters which we intend to distribute at least once per month. 

Unfortunately, keeping our members and supporters informed of what we are doing has been pushed down the list as we try to keep to schedule with our projects and keep abreast of new developments which, for a small remote island, happen with ever increasing frequency. For organisations like the Trust a strong membership, reflected in the number of subscribers it attracts, is crucial if we are to play our full part in St Helena’s future. 

We therefore keenly invite you to either renew your membership or take out your first subscription. 

An Annual subscription is £15.  An Annual Family subscription is £25.  A Life Membership is £250.

You can either post a cheque or pay by electronic transfer.  The details are shown below.

Thank you for reading this e-newsletter.  The main message is a very important one.  In a few weeks I will distribute another with fuller news coverage of the work the Trust is doing and wants to do in the future.
