NATIONAL Trust chiefs are looking to recruit 60 volunteers to help with plans to open the Tyntesfield Estate on Fridays.

The trust, which welcomed its one millionth visitor to the estate in 2012, wants to increase access to the house and its collection by opening on Fridays from July to November.

As part of the new venture it needs to recruit a new team of up to 60 volunteers in a variety of roles to welcome visitors and tell the story of the family and its treasure trove of contents.

Tyntesfield volunteer manager Liz Jones said: "We are looking to create a new team of enthusiastic volunteers from the local area who together will bring the house to life on Fridays.

"We're often been asked why we don't open on Fridays, as we are a great stopping point for visitors both staying in North Somerset and Bristol or passing through to and from Devon and Cornwall on holiday or a long weekend.

"Our new volunteer team will help deliver greater access for these visitors and a fantastic welcome."

No prior knowledge needed for the role as there will be support and training between March and July. The availability to volunteer regularly on Fridays is essential.
