AN appeal is being made for volunteers to help support a playscheme for disabled children.

Darlington Association on Disability (DAD) wants to provide a playscheme for hundreds of children in the town in July and August.

The more volunteers the scheme can recruit the more disabled children will be given the chance to join in the activities.

Volunteers aged 16 and over are needed to support and help the children.

They must be willing to undertake basic training and complete police checks.

Volunteers can give as much or as little time as possible between Monday, July 21, and Friday, August 15.

For details call (01325) 489999 or call into DAD's offices, next to the Dolphin Centre in the Market Place.
