A LEADING East Lancashire accountancy practice has added two new faces to its staff.

Rebecca Fielding (pictured left) and Louise Worden (right), both 18, have joined Haworths chartered accountants, of Accrington, straight from St Mary's College, Blackburn.

Rebecca, of Blackburn, said: "This is a great opportunity for me and I have already attended a short book-keeping course in Manchester." Away from the office Rebecca plays netball but her number one passion is Manchester United and she holds a season ticket at Old Trafford.

Louise, from Oswaldtwistle, said: "I am really enjoying the work. Everyone is friendly and there is a great feeling to the place." She spends her spare time looking after her horse.
