A SCHEME that helps elderly people is looking for volunteers in Sparsholt.
National charity Contact the Elderly is looking for people to drive elderly guests to and from tea parties.
Joy Housham said in an appeal: “I know we are all busy people with busy lives, but if you or anyone you know could possibly spare a few hours (not necessarily available every month), the charity would be more than happy to arrange a chat to see what’s involved.
“In my three years, I have got to know some absolutely delightful ladies and gents who for one reason or another, lack regular friendly human contact in their daily lives.”
To get involved email Helen Osborne on helencosborne@hotmail.co.uk, or go to contact-the-elderly.org.uk.
