COLEFORD Twinning Association is seeking seasonal employment opportunities for up to six young adults from St Hilaire de Riez in the French Vendee this summer.

Twinning Association member Nick Penny said: “The placement should be for a minimum of four weeks. To allow each young person to cover travel, accommodation and living expenses there is an earnings expectation of around £800 for the month.

“This is a great opportunity to further promote Coleford and the wider Forest of Dean and Wye Valley to our neighbours in France.  There will also be the potential for young adults from Coleford to travel to France in the summer of 2018 for a similar experience.”

Anyone interested in forming links between their UK business and the town in western France is asked to contact Nick on 07801 650977 or [email protected] for more information.
