Stewards needed for carnival

A NEW South Reading summer event is calling on the community for volunteers to ensure its smooth running.

The inaugural Whitley Carnival, which will take place on Sunday, June 11, requires around 30 stewards to line the parade from 11am-1pm.

Volunteers will man the route, helping keep people safe while also watching the procession.

Those interested in taking part will be asked to take part in a half hour briefing during the week leading up to the event.

MOTORISTS in Earley may be required to find alternative routes on Sunday as planned road works are set to take place.

B3350 Wilderness Road will be closed between Pepper Lane and Hartsbourne Road on May 21.

The restrictions will allow Thames Water to carry out sewer cover replacement works on a defective manhole in the carriageway.

The closure will be carried out from 10am-2pm.
