SPORTS clubs and organisations across Louth and the Wolds can benefit from student volunteer week.

Lincolnshire boasts a host of sports volunteering programmes ideal for students across the county.

And, during student volunteer week, Sport Makers – a national Sport England programme, aims to recruit as many new volunteers as possible.

Anyone aged 16 plus can sign up to the programme for free.

Lizzie Couling, workforce development manager at Lincolnshire Sports Partnership, said: "There are lots of benefits to students who volunteer in sport; by gaining new skills they are building their CV, and by working with local clubs or organisations they are giving something back to their local area."

Sport Makers is inspired by the London 2012 Games.
