ISPC INFORMATIO­N EVENING

The Louth/Meath branch of the ISPCC is recruiting for our Childline service and their next training course is due to start at the end of September. They recruit volunteers from all over the Louth and Meath area and are eager to add to our fantastic team. The first step in becoming a volunteer is to attend an informatio­n evening (on one of a choice of evenings). This is an opportunit­y for people to come along and hear about the service, and what is involved in volunteeri­ng.

They would also have a chance to hear from an already active volunteer. These are on Monday 28th August, Tuesday 5th September and Thursday 14th September. All sessions will begin at 6.30pm, and anyone interested is invited to attend. They will be held at the ISPC office in Drogheda (Distillery House, Dyer Street, Drogheda, Co Louth). Anyone interested in attending one of the informatio­n evenings should contact Danielle Lambe on 041-9809964or dlambe@ ispcc.ie to book a place.
