LOCAL history group Darwen Days is recruiting more volunteers, in particular people who can help organise and run Darwen’s events.

Darwen Days has been saving photographs that show the history and heritage of Darwen and its people for the past two years in an attempt to preserve the town’s history.

But the group also organises events such as the 1940s day and the St George’s Day celebrations and as these grow in popularity, the team needs more recruits to help out.

Anyone with a love of history and those who would like to dedicate some of their spare time to keeping the events going is urged to email the group at darwendays@hotmail.com
