CARNIVAL organisers in Clacton are appealing for volunteers to help with the week-long spectacular.

They need people to run sideshows and marshall the various events during carnival week, which starts on August 9.

A volunteers evening is being held at Sam’s Hall, Rosemary Road, on July 15 at 7.30pm.
