Sign up for Charles' army of volunteers

The Big Help Out drive for Coronation

- DAN WARBURTON

A CAMPAIGN to recruit thousands of volunteers for more than 1,500 charities has been launched as part of the Coronation celebrations.

With 50 days to go before King Charles is crowned, the public are being urged to sign up for volunteering roles available on The Big Help Out app.

The Scouts, Royal Voluntary Service, Guide Dogs and thousands of smaller local groups are among organisations hoping to recruit volunteers.
