A VOLUNTEER taster day was held in Burnley to entice new helpers to come forward.

Representatives from Home-Start, Education Learning Activity Centre and Happy Faces Childcare which are all Burnley-based family organisations were on hand at the Enterprise Centre in Valley Street to offer advice.

They want people to volunteer and help make a difference to people's daily lives. Volunteers are trained which helps people share and learn new skills.

For more information on being a volunteer people should contact Carol or Allison on 473928.
