THE Accrington Info Centre is to hold a travel open evening aimed at widening the horizons of local young people.

The event on Thursday is for anyone who is thinking about travelling, working, studying or volunteering abroad.

Other young people who have already experienced travel will be on hand to talk about the highs and lows of their own journeys and to answer questions by those who hope to plan their own trip.

Anyone who wants to find out more can join the information sharing extravaganza at The Info Centre for Young People, in Abbey Street, between 3.30pm and 8.30pm or call 01254 385050.
