A LIFELINE service desperately needs new volunteers to guarantee its future.

The WRVS wants more people to step forward to offer a friendly face and a quick chat to elderly locals in and around Morecambe while delivering hot lunchtime meals.

For many people, the Meals on Wheels' helper is their only social contact - and more are needed.

Meals on Wheels requires both drivers and helpers, men and women who can spare three hours once a week or fortnight.
