Appeal for Meals on Wheels volunteers
The service, run by the WRVS, is looking for volunteer drivers to deliver meals between 11.30am and 1.30pm in their own areas.
It could be once a month, once a week, or every day, depending on how much time a volunteer has.

Delivery drivers must have their own car and undertake a CRB check.
The service is also looking for people to accompany the drivers on their deliveries.
Peter Catchpole, member for adults services, said: “The service Meals on Wheels provides is vital to the people of West Sussex.
