AN ANIMAL charity is looking for volunteers to help housebound Chiltern residents who are no longer able to walk their dogs.

The Cinnamon Trust is on the lookout for people who can give up some of their spare time to help look after pets belonging to the elderly or ill.

In particular the charity wants someone to walk a Pomeranian dog for an elderly Amersham resident.

As well as taking care of dog walking duties, the Cinnamon Trust will also foster pets when owners need hospital care, bring food supplies to residents and clean out bird cages or litter trays.

Anyone interested in volunteering can call 01736 758707 during office hours or email volunteer@cinnamon.org.uk.
