HYNDBURN Homes tenants are being urged to volunteer for a local community group.

Community Solutions, in Accrington, is offering tenants the chance to volunteer in a number of roles. The programme will offer vocational experience, and help improve volunteers’ skills, through training and support, to help them into work. During the last 12 months, Community Solutions has helped more than 45 volunteers into work, and more than 80 tenants have been referred for volunteering. Volunteers will be trained to visit people in their own homes on a weekly basis, offering companionship, and on-going visits.
