A CAMPAIGN to attract thousands of new recruits to the British Army will target job seekers in York this week.

A recruitment clinic will be held at the Jobcentre Plus in Stonebow on Wednesday, from 10.30am to 2pm.

People will be able to speak to serving members of the Army and the Army Reserve to find out about different full and part-time careers avaiable.

Brigadier Andrew Jackson said: “Regardless of their skills or background, young people who are interested in taking on a challenging and exciting new career should look at the hundreds of opportunities we have.”
