THE Teesside branch of the Alzheimer's Society is looking for volunteers to join a befriending service being set up in the Redcar and Cleveland area.

Volunteers are needed to work with people who have Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia and their carers. Volunteers must be considerate and have good listening and communication skills.

The Society offers training and support and all travel expenses will be paid. Anyone wanting further information should call Eileen Shepherd on (01642) 655688.
