Why a National Trust Pass?
Spending time in nature is one of the most effective ways to boost your wellbeing, yet research shows that the average person in the UK spends just 7% of their working week outdoors – around 86 minutes a week. However, even short breaks outside can make a remarkable difference.
Studies show that just 10–15 minutes in a natural environment can improve focus, reduce stress, and lift your mood. Walking along a tree-lined street, exploring a garden, or taking a stroll in the countryside can help clear your mind and recharge your energy. In fact, research suggests that 80% of people who spend time in nature feel happier, while nearly three-quarters report feeling less anxious and stressed.
A National Trust Pass opens the door to hundreds of historic houses, gardens, and beautiful outdoor spaces across the UK, giving you the perfect opportunity to experience the calming, restorative power of nature first-hand!
By taking part in our World Mental Health Day giveaway, you’re not just entering a prize draw – you’re sharing practical ways to support mental health and inspiring others to take simple steps that make a difference.
