Sorry I have take so long to reply, wonders of modern technology has meant I have been off line for a few days.

ReportHi Debz. MSN office of Citizens Advice Bureau are recruiting Receptionists and Information Guides to welcome clients and assist them with finding the information they need for the problems they face. Full training and support is available. This is a great opportunity to get work experience, meet people and give something back to your local community. If you're interested please email me on recruitment@cab-banes.org and we can discuss this further. Look forward to hearing from you

ReportDear Debz How about helping in the Silver Street Woods . We are having a work party tomorrow Saturday at 10.000 and we would be so pleased to see you as many hands make light work. The job in hand is clearing a flat area near the pond for seating, and the weather is mild at the moment so the woodland is at it's best with all the autumn colours. Please give me a ring on 01761 411292 so I can give you more information Hope to see you.
Best Wishes
Lucy

ReportHi Debz, regarding your kind volunteering post....how about volunteering for us in MSN! My name is also Debz and I work for a charity called Time2Share. We support local disabled kids & families within the community by offering a befriending service. You do not need any experience as full training is provided all we ask is that you're able to commit a couple of hours once every week for a minimum of a year (hopefully longer!) We match on mutual hobbies and interests and work around you as best we can....(we want it to last afterall!) Our existing befriender's along with families give fantastic feedback, this servcie really is rewarding for all involved, and parents do really appreciate the short regular break a vol/bf allows them to have. Please check out our website and have a read. If you do feel that this is for you then please do get in touch as I'd love to hear from you! I can be contacted on 0117 9415868 - It's a Bristol number as this is where we are based however, my remit is NES and I'm over that way all the time so if at anytime you'd like to meet up please just let me know! We have lots of families in the area who are currently waiting for a volunteer/befriender so hopefully this will be one to consider! Speak soon. My email at Time2Share is nes@time2share.org.uk. Thanks for reading bye for now!"
