The Australian Council of National Trusts (ACNT) is a community-based, non-government organisation, committed to promoting and conserving Australia's indigenous, natural and historic heritage by assisting the work of the State Trusts.
The Australian Council of National Trusts (ACNT), was formed in 1965. At the state level there are eight Australian State and Territory National Trusts in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia.
Collectively, the National Trusts own or manage over 300 heritage places (the majority held in perpetuity), and manages a volunteer workforce of 7000 while also employing about 350 people nation-wide. Around 1,000,000 visitors experience the properties and their collections in Australia each year.
