Support Us
Donate
Chiddingstone Castle and the collections of Denys Eyre Bower are cared for by a charitable trust. All donations help towards the maintenance of the historic buildings, collections, grounds and our education and events programme. Denys left the Castle and collections to the nation so that future generations could enjoy and be inspired by them. We need your support more than ever to continue our work to share the centuries of history and stories preserved within the Castle’s walls and grounds.
Your donations can help us continue to welcome visitors and offer opportunities for discovery and learning. Please use the link below or if you would rather get in touch to donate directly please call 01892 870347.
Volunteer
Whether you are an expert, or you wish to learn and gain experience, please contact us about volunteering. We need help with gardening, the grounds and woodland, the collections, the visitor experience, and more. We would love to hear from you.
Email us to arrange an informal chat at hello@chiddingstonecastle.org.uk.
