VOLUNTEERS are needed to run a youth scheme which helps children with disabilities.

Bolton Shared Care runs mid-week sessions from the Starbucks Cafe at the Middlebrook Retail Park from 6pm until 8pm on Wednesdays.

Teenagers can use reserved tables to meet friends before going to the cinema, bowling, or shopping.

And if they need support, they can head back to Starbucks where volunteers are on hand.

Iain Massingham, of Bolton Shared Care, said: It aims to give the young people more independence and choice in how they spend their spare time.

Volunteers aged between 18 and 30 are needed. All applicants will be police checked.
