VOLUNTEERS are needed to help with a bucket collection at Tewkesbury Medieval Festival.

The Festival, which takes place on July 12 and 13, is a free entry event, and relies heavily on the collection to cover its expenses.

The collection will be done a rota system, so no one will be expected to do it for more than an hour or so.

Dressing up helps volunteers get into the spirit of the event, but is not essential.

Help will also be needed later this month with distributing posters and promotional material in and around the Tewkesbury.

Spokeswoman Amanda Thomas said: "It is our 25th anniversary this year, and we are making it our biggest ever, but we still have the same small group of individuals running it and we need all the help we can get.

Anyone interested in helping in any way should contact info@tewkesburymedievalfestival.org, or ring 01684 291328
