A SOCIAL network for single professional people over 40 has been set up in Bolton.

The town's Telemarketing Services Ltd celebrates its second birthday this month with the launch of Horizons, billed as a "new concept in socialising for mature single people."

Sandra Higginbottom, the firm's director, said: "There are many people who are young at heart and want to enjoy life to the full but hold back because they are single.

"Horizons is not a dating agency. It's an exclusive group devoted to getting out and enjoying new friendships."
