West Yorkshire National Trust Volunteers

West Yorkshire National Trust Volunteers (WYNTV) is a conservation volunteer group founded in 1983 assisting staff at several National Trust locations throughout West and North Yorkshire by doing work such as digging, fencing, clearing, planting, etc.

Tasks are usually arranged every other Sunday throughout the year at locations such as East Riddlesden Hall, Brimham Rocks, Beningbrough Hall, Hardcastle Crags and the Yorkshire Dales. We also usually arrange two weekend tasks per year; One in Borrowdale in the Lake District in April, and another at Cragside, Northumberland in November. Click here to read some of our task reports.

We also arrange a number of social events such as country walks, dinners out, ten-pin bowling nights and, our pièce de résistance, a Pudding Evening (where members bring their favourite puddings, usually over 10, for tasting).

If you would like to volunteer, see behind the scenes at a number of interesting National Trust locations, enjoy a refreshing spot of outdoor exercise, and meet a warm and friendly group of people of all ages, then why not join us?

We look forward to welcoming you.
