VOLUNTEERS are required in Bolton's primary schools to help children who are struggling with their reading.

The organisation, Volunteer Reading Help, currently has 110 people helping out in 63 schools in Bolton, Bury, Salford and Wigan, but more are urgently needed.

The next training course starts in February and anyone interested should ring 01204 338053.

Fundraisers are also needed to help organise events and should call the same number.
