The work load is not too onerous – a dozen cheques a year, twenty paying in events and reconciling the monthly statement, which is dominated by subscription payments from our nearly 200 members, a growing proportion of which are standing orders. The busiest time is around the Village Green Party in June. The Society is not a registered charity.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Ideally the task would be combined with that of membership secretary but these tasks can be separated. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>If you might be interested, or know someone who might be, please call me for more information.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>As a follow up to this we also need someone prepared to act as internal auditor for the annual financial report made at the AGM, early December.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Second:<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>We have run the Village Green Party for thirty years and amongst other things, we provide a level of first aid support. This has typically been provided by St Johns Ambulance or other commercial or semi-commercial organisations but has become increasingly expensive to the point where it is a significant expense of the day. We have never experienced any significant medical incidents. We believe it will be entirely adequate if we can staff with experienced first aiders (as was done for the Queens 90<sup>th</sup> Beacon event). There is a room available at the Village Hall for recovery from any minor bumps or sprains.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>So if anyone with some training would be prepared to volunteer we would be very grateful.
