TEMPORARY homes are needed for French schoolchildren who will be arriving on an exchange visit in Pershore next month.

The children will arrive in the town on Sunday, April 6. They will stay for six days, going on trips during the day and some evenings as well. They will depart on Saturday, April 12.

Pershore Twinning Association's Barbara Harrison said: "When they came last year they were very polite and well behaved.

"If anyone could help with accommodation we would be very grateful, so far we only have accommodation for about half of them." If you could help, contact Barbara Harrison on 01386 552304 or Chris O'Loughlin on 01386 554571.
