VOLUNTEERS are needed to push through ideas by youngsters in Colwall.

In September, Ledbury Youth First set up a focus group of seven children, aged 11 to 13, to talk about how they would improve things in the village.

Volunteers are now needed to help put into practice their ideas, which include improving play equipment on Colwall Green, providing skate park facilities and extending opening times at the library.

Assistant youth development worker Sarah Preedy, said: "We need councillors, parents and anyone with knowledge of Colwall who thinks they can help realise these aspirations."

There is a meeting at the Millennium Rooms, Colwall, on Monday (April 14), at 7pm, or contact Ledbury Youth First on 01531 636611.
