AGE CONCERN Petersfield is appealing for drivers to take elderly people on trips.

The weekday afternoon trips start in April and carry on until October, said organiser Audrey Bridle.

A 14-seater minibus is used and volunteer drivers can undertake a confidence boosting course in driving it before setting out on their own.

The trips normally leave Winton House in Petersfield High Street around 2pm and get back about 5.30pm, and take in places such as Stokes Bay, Lee-on-the-Solent, the Chocolate Frog near Hindhead, and Bosham and Emsworth.
