A CHARITY is looking for a Wordsley dog walker to help care for a poorly patient's pooch.
The Cinnamon Trust, which provides a dog walking and pet care service for pensioners or people in the latter stages of terminal illness, needs someone to walk a 12-year-old Jack Russell called Buddy.
The trust's 15,000 volunteers aim to help people avoid having to rehome pets to retain companionship and protection.
Owning a pet has been shown to help reduce stress, lower blood pressure and increase social interaction amongst the elderly.
