HELP URGENTLY NEEDED FOR RAINBOWS GROUP
Rainbows are girls aged between 5 and 7 years who meet once a week for about an hour to do all kinds of exciting things that help them gain knowledge and skills and have fun. Leaders are given training so that they can help the girls enjoy fun and friendship and experience new challenges. Whatever your skills, they would be greatly valued. If you can help on a weekly or fortnightly basis as a unit helper please contact Alison Dixon on 01322 864949. There is a real danger that the unit will have to close if more help is not found.
