SKIPTON Town Council is hoping to recruit 'casual events staff' to step in and help out on some of the town's busiest days.

The successful applications will join the council's team for events such as Skipton Gala, on June 8; Sheep Day, on June 30; and for the St George's Day parade, on April 21.

Extra staff are also needed for the Remembrance Parade, on November 10; and the switching on of the Christmas lights, on November 24, as well as the Christmas Markets on December 1 and December 8.

The council is also looking to take on casual markets staff, including for its young traders market on August 4. Find out more at: www.skiptontowncouncil.gov.uk; call 01756 700553 or email admin@skiptontowncouncil.gov.uk
