Funding for NTS welcome – we will continue to do all we can to assist those facing redundancy

16 August 2020

Prospect has responded news of a Scottish Government support package for the National Trust for Scotland (NTS).

Richard Hardy, Prospect national secretary for Scotland, said:

“The work of our reps and members has substantially reduced the potential redundancies at the National Trust for Scotland.

“The announcement of £3.8m funding from Scottish Government is most welcome. The assistance is conditional on sites re-opening and more jobs being saved, a key ask from Prospect, that was vitally important.

“However over 200 staff still face redundancy and we will continue to do all we can to assist them.”
