Volunteers needed for community project

A PIONEERING project is about to start in Fordbridge, with the aim of supporting people looking to make a difference in the local area.
The Community Action Network (CAN) has been set up by local activists and will aim to identify community-led solutions to various issues.
CAN’s first initiative is a community research project, using the knowledge of local residents to map the area and identify local priorities and possible solutions.
This project is due to get underway in March and CAN are keen to find people who can help carry out the research by speaking to neighbours and friends.
Volunteers will receive training and will be paid expenses. The opportunity to volunteer is open to anyone, with CAN hoping to recruit a mix of people of different ages.
"If you are looking for work, this is a great opportunity to gain a qualification and experience as well as helping your neighbourhood," said CAN member Simeon Bright.
