The Wardman Wire

I’m a life member of the National Trust. A highly recommended investment.

But there are three of us who are members in the household, so we get three sets of everything:

• Handbook.
• Magazine.
• Regional Newsletter.
• Puffs for Appeals.
• Puffs for Third Parties allowed to use the list.
• Puffs for god-knows-what-else.
• Renewal reminders (does not apply to me).
• And all the rest.

This morning I called them up and was able to opt out of everything, except for the things that matter such as the AGM mailing and Handbook.

They have a system where you can opt out of individual items. And I still get to see everything.

I reckon that will save a good chunk of tree each year.

The phone number you want is 0844 800 1895. You will also need your Membership Number or Post Code, and will need to satisfy them that you are you (not too difficult).

You know it makes sense.
