News and Links
The Friends of Turton Tower help look after this unique historic house and gardens. Please explore our website to find out more about this local gem!
 
 
What do the Friends do?
We raise funds to contribute to the running of the Tower by collecting membership fees and organising fundraising events and projects. More information on these events can be found on the Events Calendar page of this website.
 
Why are they so important?
The supportive role of the Friends of Turton Tower has recently become more crucial as on February 16th 2006, Lancashire County Council voted to withdraw funding services at Turton Tower in two years time. The Friends are currently exploring ways of increasing their support for the Tower and are working with the Trustees to help secure a future for this local gem. We have two years to make a difference!
 
Who can Join?
Anyone can join the Friends, for just £7 per year! For this you'll receive free access to the Tower and you'll be able to join in some of the events which we arrange exclusively for the Freinds. If you'd like to find our more please visit the how to help page.
