VOLUNTEERS are being sought for the fifth annual Curdridge Beer Festival.

The festival returns on Saturday, September 12, from 6pm to 11pm, offering ales from across Hampshire and closer to home.

Live music comes from Ken Wood and the Mixers, while mexican pulled pork wraps will top the food menu.

Organisers hope to improve on last year's haul for the Curdridge Reading Room Charity, funding repairs to the dilapidated village hall.

They said: "We really need as much volunteer help as possible, so if you would like to get involved, drop us a line and let us know when you're available. You'll be doing your community a sterling service and there could even be a free pint with your name on it."
