Treasurers & Office Persons required
We have three community organisations that are looking for volunteers to fill the above positions. Each role is slightly different.
The main requirement for two of the organisations will require approx. 1 – 2 hours per week and this may be able to be reduced when the right person becomes familiar with the requirements, or it could be that one person could do the role for both organisations.
One of the tasks will be logging into the pay role and setting up the wages, as well, they will need to prepare a monthly report and if possible be available to attend the monthly meeting, have some knowledge of paying accounts and be able to use an Excel Spreadsheet.
Support from the current volunteer will be available for the new person
If you have started a course and are looking to gain work experience – this could be a great way to gain that.
If these voluntary positions sound like something that you would like more information about. and if you think you may like to check one or more of these opportunities out then please contact Wendy at Volunteering New Plymouth on Ph 06 758 8986, Mob/Text 022 571 4228 or email admin@volunteeringnewplymouth.nz to take that next step, and discuss with her your skills and the potential options, she is keen to hear from you.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park.
