YOUNG volunteers are wanted for new projects being launched across Thurrock.

The community organisation ngage Thurrock Volunteer Centre has launched a project aimed at 16-24-year-olds to help identify opportunities for young people to volunteer across the borough.

Laura Hudson, volunteer coordinator, said “Volunteering can help increase job prospects or to access further education.”

“We want to encourage local organisations and groups to consider supporting the project and identify opportunities that young people can access.”
