There are four community run Local Information Centres in Area
North serving Langport, South Petherton, Martock and Somerton.
The LICs supported in Area North
had over 10,000 visitors during 2010-11, helped by 80
volunteers.
The Local Information Centres (LIC) in Martock and South
Petherton also act as Police Posts and many local
organisations make good use of the centres for promoting
local events and activities.
LICs recieve a small grant from SSDC (between £500 and £750 per
year), but are largely funded by town and parish councils and their
own fundraising.
LICs provide a great way for very local information to be found
and shared! They are always keen to find new volunteers too to keep
the LICs open for as many hours as possible each week.
To find out more about volunteering at an LIC contact the local
co-ordinator via the LIC office.
