Slinfold Village Hall News
Minutes Secretary needed
Earlier this year, we recruited a few volunteers to help with practical matters at the hall, but because we are still three trustees short of full complement, we would also like one or more volunteers to help with administrative matters. Specifically, we are in urgent need of a Minutes Secretary. If you feel you could help with this or would like further details, please see the box below.
User Groups’ Equipment
All regular Hall Users should by now have received notification that the Trustees will shortly be tidying up all storage areas within the Hall and discarding surplus equipment. All regular Hall Users having equipment stored there are pleased asked to ensure that ALL their equipment is clearly marked to show their ownership, not later than Friday 26th October.  This is both so that we do not discard it inadvertently, and because, for insurance purposes, we need to know what is stored in the Hall and who owns it.
