The National Trust cheerfully embraced this Sunday Sport ‘kinky dogging’ story and people loved them for it
It’s fair to say if the National Trust hadn’t shared this Sunday Sport story on Twitter then neither you or I would be any the wiser (we haven’t got round to reading our copy yet).
So all the awards, then, for the National Trust’s communications director Celia Richardson who took this ‘kinky dogging’ story at a National Trust estate and ran with it, she really ran with it.
Communications teams at the other museums and galleries get so envious of us at the National Trust. You just can’t pull in headlines like this at the Tate or V&A. pic.twitter.com/nhWNzVxSSR

Well, indeed. English Heritage, look to your oats!
And we weren’t the only ones who loved it.
You’re on fire, Celia!

Well obviously. Have you tried parking near the V&A? Totally unsuited for dogging.

The big question is – did they show their membership cards?

And just in case you were wondering or, er, fancied paying a visit, it’s Dunham Massey in Cheshire.
Is that Dunham? Down the road from me. Was going to go today but the weather is awful. Must keep my eyes peeled next time I visit

Yes its Dunham… we do a walk around there few times a week

Fairly sure you can make this headline scan to the *verses* (not the chorus) of Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious https://t.co/7AB9Zwra9f

There’s probably a huge untapped market for the gift shop here… https://t.co/YIzfCzlz1m

To conclude …
Whoever hired Celia made a career defining decision
Awesome comms. Humour and determination https://t.co/zlA1vwBUu1
