here are two collections of worktop protectors being launched in the first phase. The Trust’s iconic and easily recognisable oak leaf logo features on all items from the Nature Collection commissioned with watercolour artist and nature enthusiast Louise Nisbet Fine Art BA (Hons). The illustrations feature countryside scenes, native flora and fauna, animals and insects reflecting the conservation work undertaken by the National Trust and its team of rangers. The National Trust look after more than 250,000 hectares of countryside, 780 miles of coastline and hundreds of special places across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The Alfriston Clergy Collection features a repeat oak leaf pattern in four contemporary colours.

Through sales generated, Eddington’s will contribute a minimum of £10,000 to the National Trust to help support the work they do for future generations to enjoy. For everyone, for ever. All the collections in this range are produced at Eddingtons’ Tuftop works, located in rural Berkshire. The Tuftop worktop protectors are made using special toughened glass which resists PROGRESSIVE
