Jean Webzell, 64, of Garraby Close, has signed up to volunteer for the East Barnsley Fundraising Group for Macmillan Cancer Support.She would like others to join her in the work so that more can be achieved.

Jean said: "Anybody can contribute and do as little or as much as they want.

"We are trying to bring a group together that can regularly put on events in this area.

"I started volunteering for the charity when I retired and I have heard the most incredible stories from people I've met about the work of the local nurses."
