The free national trust family pass (single use) is being run in local newspapers (Reach publications) from 8th to 17th Feb e.g. Coventry Telegraph, Bristol Post etc. Cost of newspaper is from £1.45 as far as I can see.

However it maybe possible to get for free online as a number of sites seem to be giving the passes away but is not guaranteed, some links below


There are probably more via local news sites. The pass needs to be used by the end of March, terms listed below.

    Thanks Chanchi, got a free NT family pass using your first link
  2. Pink.pixie's avatar
    I was unlucky with one email address, tried another and it was lucky!
  3. Joanna_K's avatar
    Tried your area and deemed unlucky lol they know me well
    jacksebe's avatar
    Every time it said "unlucky" I just refreshed and entered in a new email address until finally one was a winner
  4. pickme's avatar
    I won in the in your area and was sent a barcode but no numbers on it as per PaulandPams pic
    ecuador's avatar
    A barcode is a number (you can use a qr/barcode scanner app to read it) - the problem is we all got the same one, so they didn't have "25000" to give.

    We have just been to Wicken fen with in your area pass. There was no issue apart from the attitude of the lady at the centre
    Auran's avatar
    thanks for mentioning the place - will consider
  6. LJHDeals's avatar
    I've been today and showed voucher no issues
  7. gemma.woodliff's avatar
    Used the free passes last year, me and my sister had exactly the same code sent to us. No problems using them, no questions where we got them from
    BulldogNo1's avatar
    Was that for the 'in your area' offer or from one of the papers?
  8. BigDom's avatar
    I posted this offer last year and it was well received. I emailed the NT about the site called "In Your Area" as its layout, questions and signing up requirement was very different than all the other sites. NT told me they were not part of this offer. Basically they copied the tickets from the legitimate sites and passed it on as if it was their own. They were able to do this because the barcodes were the same for everybody. The reason they are doing this is to increase their subscriber base and harvest some data from you (IMO). You don't need to worry too much. Please remember this was last year things may have changed. Thought you guys should know. (edited)
  9. BigDom's avatar
    Can some of you kindly post the last 4 digits of your barcode, so we can compare.
    Tzahi's avatar
    1200*****2000
    Looks same for everyone
  10. PaulandPam's avatar
    I tried my real email address and never won a voucher, then tried a few fake email addresses and got the win conformation and bar code below, is this the same barcode that would have been sent to my real email if I had won? because it's the same barcode everytime I win
    49518548-L0mVD.jpg (edited)
    ecuador's avatar
    Yup, 1200748312000, got the same thing. Not so sure it's legit
  11. BulldogNo1's avatar
    So is the 'in your area' one just a scam to data harvest?
    Anyone used a code yet to gain entry? (edited)
    deevalley's avatar
    We used an “In your area” code today - worked fine
  12. kreativevizon's avatar
    Can someone please confirm if Stonehenge is included in this offer?
    geriatrix's avatar
    Stonehenge is an English Heritage site, not National Trust, so probably not.

    Remember, all National Trust land allows fox hunting!
    Newbold's avatar
    This would be true - except that it isn't. So much disinformation around, but why?
  14. agalagii's avatar
    Thanks I got one
  15. Hopeso's avatar

  18. chorizotuna's avatar
    Got 2 passes, thanks!
  19. NibblyPig's avatar
    The barcodes do not appear to be unique...
    ecuador's avatar
    How would they ever track of the one per person then?
  20. MissNix's avatar
    Great deal, got one via MEN. Thanks OP!
  21. Onlymewhoelse's avatar
    If you get more than one paper so more than one voucher is it the same barcode on each voucher so can only use once
  22. PeteW's avatar
    Got one from InYourArea - does anyone know if the barcodes are unique?
    greatnameuk's avatar
    I just filled it in and there is no submit button? Whaaaa
  23. greatnameuk's avatar
    Worked on tablet but was unlucky!
  24. hjskev's avatar

  25. williamsofsoton's avatar

    Just went to try again and got the same message!
  27. cazalaza2's avatar
    I rang the national Trust and they said they don’t currently have a scheme they had one last Autumn and it’s closed and when I went back to the link and clicked on the exclusions it said the pass was only valid up to 22 November 2022.

    I was successful yesterday, got an email stating this -.Congratulations on successfully claiming a FREE family day pass to use at a National Trust property in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, valid for one single use between now and Friday, 31 March 2023. (With a barcode)
  29. geriatrix's avatar
    Got one, but reading some of the above I'm not too sure ....
  30. H_maL's avatar
    Where is everyone seeing the barcode number? Mine only has the barcode and no number on it. Email from the Express.
    ecuador's avatar
    Barcodes are numbers, you can read them with a scanning app like you do QR codes.
    Weird, what do people think barcodes are? It's just a representation of a serial number, in products you have the number underneath in case the barcode reader doesn't work. (edited)
  31. ecuador's avatar
    Just did the Manchester Evening News one, and it's still the same barcode. Did somebody designing this promo screw up?
  32. H_maL's avatar
    Never mind, just seen a reply that everyone else's is just a barcode too and they're reading the number with a scanner.
  33. Dealseeker33's avatar
    Even though its a family pass can I just go with my partner (2 adults no children)
    chorizotuna's avatar
    It’s for a small family.
  34. Auran's avatar

  37. TomKramer's avatar
