IT is difficult enough for youngsters these days to get a foot on the property ladder without having to furnish a house.

For those that cannot afford a house and have to rely on rented or subsidised accommodation, the situation is almost impossible.

Bolton Community Transport is a charity that deserves the support of all of us.

It enables people who are struggling to set up home to furnish a property with second-hand items that are often of a high quality.

The charity is run by volunteers and deserving people can pick up the likes of a fridge for £30 and a suite from £25 to £90.

Let us hope its success continues.
