National Trust for Scotland which has its HQ in Charlotte Square has announced it is selling some of its properties to try and make ends meet according to Country Life. This follows the strategic review by Rt Hon George Reid. You can read the text of that here. Funny then that there is nothing on the NTS website to confirm this. There is a long-winded statement from the Chief Executive who seems to be keeping her job in all of this though. Apparently the Trust did not even know what it owned. What will it sell then?
