MORE volunteers are needed to help vulnerable residents during lockdown and beyond.

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council is urging people to give up their time to help the Community Action Network.

People will be matched to people living close to them and advice and training will be given.

Anyone who can help is asked to register at orlo.uk/ab3AS or call 01202 466130.

The public is also reminded that the Together We Can helpline is available for anyone in the BCP area who does not have a support network.

It is available from Monday to Friday on 0300 123 7052
