PLANS to set up a Credit Union for West Somerset are being pushed forward with specialist training days for its team of volunteers.

Organisers are still on the look out for more people who would be willing to give up some free time and join the group.

The union would be a locally run financial institution, which would offer people the chance to save money and to take out low-interest loans.
