    The garden, house and education programme cost the Trust over £1 million a year to run. Around £700,000 of this comes from visitor, nursery and event income but the remaining £300,000 has to be found from donations as the Trust receives no regular public subsidy.

  • Tutors

    Our course tutors are a mixture of experienced staff and people who have had a strong connection with Dixter over the years.
