A GROUP formed to forge links between Rossendale and its twin town of Bocholt is keen to hear from any groups that want to make contact with their German counterparts.

The Friends of Bocholt visit Rossendale's twin town frequently and could help other groups find out about life in Germany. Anyone who wants to find out information can contact the group who will arrange for an individual to visit Bocholt with them. Their next visit will be in February when the group will visit the Bocholt Karneval.
