Treasurer Needed for Chearsley Village Hall Management Committee
After almost 5 years, the current Treasurer, Alex Wall Morris is keen to step down from her duties and pass the baton on to another member of the Chearsley community. All that is required is simple book keeping and reports of the hall’s finances to the Committee which meets 4 times a year. The majority of the hall’s bills are paid by direct debit, but some bills will need to be paid manually (i.e. cleaner, long term users of the hall etc.). This is a great opportunity for a Chearsley villager to refresh (or learn!) some key financial skills and help ensure that our new village hall keeps going from strength to strength. Time needed is approximately 1 to 2 hours per week. If you are interested in the role, please get in touch with Antonia Stratford at antoniastratford40@gmail.com.
Next Refuse Collection will be on Tuesday January 8th when the recycling bins and food bins will be collected. Then collections are back to normal on Mondays.
