Bradford East MP David Ward served dinners to older people during Volunteers’ Week.

Mr Ward was joined by MEP Edward McMillan Scott at St John’s Church in Thorpe Edge during a vintage volunteer fair, where 50 people met groups and charities who need volunteers.

Recently a speed-dating style event was held at Bradford Volunteer Centre, which saw 21 community groups meet new volunteers.

At other events ten people found about becoming a charity trustee and 25 people found out about how they could read with school children.

Dave Forrest, director of Bradford Volunteer Centre, said: “Volunteers make an amazingly significant contribution to the life of the Bradford district.”
