Village fundraising group Sherston 1016 is looking for new blood following the retirement of two founder members, Noel Banks and Martin Rea.

Members are especially looking for help to stage the annual fireworks display in November, which involves setting up the field before and clearing up afterwards.

The group formed more than 20 years ago to bring in money for local good causes.

It also runs the popular book sales in the village hall, the pancake race, and the keenly contested tug of war during the annual Boules Weekend.

Anyone interested should contact Martin Jacques either at martin@trackandrace.com or on 07717 424619, or visit Mike Tarrant at Grays Garage.
