GROUPS of young people keen to improve their communities are being urged to sign up for the annual Lifestyle scheme.

Start date for projects under the scheme, run by Worcestershire County Council's youth service, is Saturday, July 22 but teams have chances to register over the coming week.

On Monday and Wednesday, 11 to 18 year olds can pick up information packs from Kidderminster Youth House, Bromsgrove Street, between 3pm and 6pm.

There are prizes for the top three projects.
