A charity that supports disabled and less mobile people to get out on the River Thames is now offering a five day-a-week service.

Wallingford Accessible Boat Club announced the expansion with the aim of providing passengers with more choice when considering the timing of their trip.

By running from Tuesday to Saturday, the charity will also be able to deliver more journeys.

Chairman, John Jenkins, said: "We are so very pleased to be able to offer additional capacity to our clients so they can take full advantage of our free-of-charge river voyages.

"We had an excellent response to our recruitment campaign over last winter and having got our new recruits fully trained we have been able to add them into our pool of volunteer crews."

He added: "With the increased capacity, we can offer nine voyages per week and hope to now be able to make up the time lost due to adverse river and weather conditions in April and May.

"We set a target at the start of the year of 300 passengers voyaging with us during the season to September so now we should be back on track."

He welcomed all disabled and less mobile people in South Oxfordshire to use the service.

Voyages are free but donations are welcome and are put towards the running of the service.
