Your chance to volunteer

Welshpool is organising a Community Volunteers Day on Saturday to link people who want to volunteer with worthy organisations looking for help.

If you live in the area and have some spare time to help out local causes then there are plenty who will welcome you with open arms.

Organised by Welshpool Town Council, the Volunteers Day takes place at the Corn Exchange in the Town Hall from 9:30am-12 noon.

Local volunteer groups will be in attendance displaying their work and activities, giving you the chance to speak with a representative and learn more about what they do.

“It is the ideal opportunity for anyone with some spare time to seek out a group/activity suited for them,” said a town council spokesperson.
