Help Save the home of William Wordsworth

Rydal Mount, the beloved home of William Wordsworth for nearly four decades, is now for sale — and at risk of disappearing into private hands. For generations, this tranquil house containing a unique and culturally significant collection of Wordsworth memorabilia, along with its breathtaking gardens, has welcomed poetry lovers, environmentalists, artists, and dreamers from around the world since it was bought by descendants of the poet in the 1960s.

But unless we act now, this national treasure could be lost to the public forever.

Help us preserve Rydal Mount as a living memorial to Wordsworth’s legacy — his poetry, his passion for nature, and his vision for social change.
