The Rotary Club of Cambridge South is looking for charitable groups to take a share of funds from this year's charity car parking event, which will take place in December.

The group, along with help from Cambridge University, man car parks in the centre of Cambridge for the public to help ease the parking shortage during

the Christmas shopping rush.

Last year more than £30,000 was raised with funds usually distributed in amounts of £250 to £3,000.
