Charities have been warned of the risks of political campaigning, just days after conservation groups including the National Trust launched an attack on the Government.

Telegraph readers have written to the Editor to express concern over the National Trust’s new voting system - which has a ‘quick vote’ option to ratify the Board’s preferred candidates - and urging members to vote against these candidates.

The Times reported on Restore Trust’s mission in an article on 17 September 2022 about National Trust job cuts, despite their rising income.

Director of Restore Trust, Zewditu Gebreyohanes, spoke to the Daily Mirror on 16 September 2022 about how a shortage of volunteers is leading the National Trust to remove access to some of its properties.
