A TEAM of city fundraisers are hosting a coffee morning to aid the training of dogs who help injured servicemen and emergency service workers.

The event will be held inside the Guildhall on Worcester's High Street on Thursday, August 13 from 10am to 2pm.

A wide range of cakes will be on offer alongside tea or coffee as well as soft drinks.

Shoppers are invited to take a break and help raise funds for Hounds for Heroes.

The charity provides specially trained assistance dogs to injured and disabled men and women of both the UK Armed Forces and the emergency services.

This gives people the support to help them lead a better life, not only through practical help but also companionship.

There will also be a prize tombola.
