A CHARITY is on the look out for volunteers.
Home Start Teesside needs people to offer support, friendship and help to families with children under the age of five.
A spokesman for Home Start said: "Many families need a friend. They are coping with impossible pressures due to divorce, loneliness, isolation and illness.
"Sometimes it helps just to have someone to talk to, or someone there to listen."
Volunteers spend two to three hours a week working with families.
