The British Heart Foundation (BHF), the UK’s leading heart charity, is appealing for volunteers to help with various fund-raising and other activities, from organising events to raising awareness of the need to lead a healthier lifestyle. Activities include organising a raffle, setting up a fund-raising group among family, friends and workplace colleagues, running a quiz or helping with a sponsored run or walk.

BHF would also like to recruit schools co-ordinators to contact schools in their area, to introduce the work of the charity and to promote our events specially designed for schools, such as skipping, junior golf, and assemblies.

Littlehampton Time Bank needs more members to sign up for this innovative scheme, allowing people to come together in their communities and share their talents in a mutually beneficial way. Time Bank members help others, receive support themselves, meet new people and help communities become better places to live. Time Banking is built on the principle that for every hour a person contributes, they receive the equivalent in time credits, which can be exchanged when they need something done, such as getting a gate fixed or having a prescription collected.
