COMMUNITY groups in Wyre Forest can put themselves forward for a free stall at an upcoming volunteer fair in Kidderminster.

The event, celebrating the work of the district’s unsung heroes, comes to Kidderminster Town Hall on Thursday, March 26.

Volunteers who have a stall at the fair will be able to promote their organisation with the possibility of attracting new recruits.

Wyre Forest District Council has partnered with Kidderminster College, The Department for Work and Pensions and Vestia to host the event.

The fair will start at 10am, finishing at 2pm and will include a special CV skills workshop.

Councillor Nicky Martin, Wyre Forest District Council’s cabinet member for housing, health, wellbeing and democratic services, said: “Our annual volunteer fairs are a great way to find out about the various volunteering opportunities we currently have in Wyre Forest.

“It is hoped this event will raise awareness about the wide range of causes being tackled by people at the heart of our community.

"I urge any groups, big or small, to apply for a stall at our Kidderminster event today by applying online at wyreforestdc.gov.uk/volunteerfair before Friday, February 14.”
