The National Trust is to cut almost 1,300 jobs as it seeks to save 100m in annual costs as a result of the coronavirus crisis.

The organisation, which said in July that it might have to make 1,200 people redundant to deal with the fallout from the pandemic, says it will make 514 compulsory redundancies following a consultation.
