MARSHALS are being sought for the Pendle Witch Walk on Saturday August 18.

Pendleside Hospice required volunteers over 18 years of age to help with the huge event, which will start and finish in Barley and take in Pendle Hill.

Anybody interested should contact the hospice by phone on 01282 440120 or e-mail christina.cope@pendleside.org.uk.

Marshals are required from 10.30am to 3pm for the walk, from 10am to 12pm for a Guinness World Record attempt to get the most witches in one place, which takes place in Barley Green, and then for the music event on the green from 1.30pm to 6.30pm.
