We connect people, place and the past to shape the future

In our fast-changing connected world of automation, climate change, ageing and work mobility, we need to discover and develop new inspiring inclusive ways to live, work, learn, play and relax. Here at The Crichton, we want to empower and enable a new cross-generational, business, academic and individual knowledge exchange community that shapes the Future Economy.

We will do this primarily via the enterprising custodianship of The Crichton, creating a world-renowned home and destination for innovation; a place for people to cohabit and share ideas – all inspired by The Crichton’s extraordinary history, places and spaces. Rooted in our rural setting and gigabit connected to the world.

Behind the estate is The Crichton Trust – an innovative social enterprise leading The Crichton through its next exciting phase of development.

In essence, we connect people, place and the past to shape the future.
