Who are the Friends of Historic Dilston?
The Friends of Historic Dilston exist to support the North Pennines Heritage Trust,
the owners of the historic site, who restored Dilston Castle and Chapel in 2002-3.
The Friends are governed by a Committee and by a Constitution. The Friends' Committee
is made up of a group of volunteers who organise the running of events at Historic
Dilston - both for their members and the general public. A copy of our Constitution
can be read or downloaded by clicking here.
Benefits and Role of the Friends
Friends enjoy free access to the Historic Dilston site and receive the annual Friends’ Review, a full-colour publication featuring articles relating to all aspects of Dilston’s history and covering each year’s events. By joining the Friends you can simply attend our regular programme of talks and events or you may wish to take on a more active role such as working as a guide, running a particular fund-raising activity, or generally helping around the Historic Dilston site. To read more on volunteering as a friend, please see our featured introduction below:
