Description
Ideal for a Congresbury resident, living in close proximity to the CYP cabin.
We are looking for a volunteer living locally to the club, you will be responsible for occasional opening and closing the building for one-off events. Also liaising with suppliers or workmen who need access. Ideally, this volunteer would have an interest in the maintenance of the building, doing small repairs, and assessing the skills and quotations of persons tendering for larger jobs.
The club runs its own four sessions a week, and has a couple of regular daytime bookings. These do not need the attention of the key holder volunteer, who will probably be needed not more than one a month or so, although be very important when needed.
Ideally, but not essentially, this volunteer would also be a Trustee or youth support volunteer (see separate listings) so that regular contact with the club is maintained.
