Donate to the MMT

Please help support the Mausolea & Monuments Trust, by making a donation towards our important work in researching, conserving and championing Mausolea across the country.

As a small charity with limited overheads all donations make a big difference to our work, but please be as generous as you can - click here to donate.

The Trust is run entirely by volunteers, who give their time and expertise to look after the mausolea we have in guardianship, to open them to visitors, to organise and lead events and give lectures, to expand and update the gazetteer, and to edit and write for Mausolus.

Volunteers undertake the fundraising, collect membership subscriptions, run the virtual office and safeguard the finances; we have minimal office costs.

Of course we employ professionals where we need advice on particular projects, whether it is architectural expertise for individual mausolea in guardianship; website design, or the audit of our accounts. But by supporting the Mausolea & Monuments Trust you may be sure that as much of your gift as is possible goes towards cherishing the vulnerable architectural gems we champion.

We have a comprehensive Gazetteer of mausolea which contains details and location information - including a geograhic search facility.  Click here to view
