A national charity is looking for volunteers to help walk some dogs belonging to a resident of Glastonbury.

The Cinnamon Trust is the national charity whose volunteers help people over retirement age and those in the latter stages of a terminal illness by offering all kinds of free pet care.

It is looking for dog walking volunteers to help a resident of Glastonbury and their dogs, who would love to go for a good walk.

Many elderly or ill pet owners worry about their ability to provide proper care for their animals and start looking to rehome what may be their only companion.

This is where the trust's national network of volunteers step in to offer support enabling them to stay together.

They will walk the dog for a housebound owner, foster pets when owners need hospital or hospice care, and even clean out the bird cage or litter trays.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, you can download the volunteer registration form from the trust's website at www.cinnamon.org.uk or email at [email protected].

If you would like to have a more in-depth chat about becoming a volunteer, you can call during the office hours of Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 01736 758701.
