A REGULAR running event proposed for Brentwood is searching for volunteers to help out.

Brentwood resident Leigh Norris is looking to set up a Parkrun in the town.

The project is a weekly 5km timed run organised by volunteers which has seen groups pop up across the country.

Each week the course is manned by volunteers who help with tasks such as marking out the course and timing the runners.

Anyone who is interested in helping Mr Norris set up the parkrun should email him on leigh_norris@sky.com.
