PARENTS are wanted to volunteer to train as support workers for young families in need.

The Smile Centre, Sandy Lane, Orford, is offering a free volunteer preparation course for any parent who can give up three hours a week.

Recruits would then be expected to help other families on a voluntary basis, with expenses covered.

The course runs every Wednesday from January 14, between 9.30am and 2.30pm.

Call Steph on 652320 for more information.
