Age Concern is setting up an information desk at Wantage's Mably Way Health Centre which will offer advice to pensioners.

The first session will be from 10am until noon on February 25.

The charity hopes this can continue during March, April and May, on the second and last Wednesdays of each month.

Zoe Patrick, the charity's locality development worker in the Vale of White Horse area, and a county councillor for Grove, said the scheme would be assessed in the summer to see if it should become permanent.
