Hi folks.
A reminder that rent is due by the end of the month, see your bill for payment methods. You can pay in person on 21st / 22nd and 28th / 29th between 10am and 12.30. Please bring your bill. Mark Robinson your treasurer will be taking payments in the polytunnel on Sunday 22nd. I will take payments on the 3 other days and will be in my garden. If you have difficulty in paying by the 1st of October now is the time to discuss it with me. If you are vacating your garden I need to know now, please.
On Saturday 21st September. Our few volunteers will be working on the pathway again and on Harry’s old gardens. Your help would be appreciated, it’s only for a couple of hours but more hands to make the work progress would be brilliant. We need to get the work done so we can mark out the new gardens and get tenants on as soon as possible. Which is in everyone’s interest, in the future the council will not give us a discount on non-tenanted gardens which means individual rents may need to rise to cover the deficit.
As you know we need more Committee members we ask that you give an hour or so of your time once a month so it is not arduous and you don’t have to attend every meeting. Every hour volunteered after that is a bonus. We are suggesting the secretary’s role could be split down so job sharing some of the tasks would work out a few hours per month over the year. If everyone on site gave a minimum of 2 hours a year we would be organised.
We need someone who could manage the Web site, which actually takes up very little time is just mainly putting posts up. So if you know how to manage a web site or your partner does, please offer your services. Please contact me for an informal discussion if you are interested. Interest does not mean you commit yourself. Talk to me, please.
Unless we get the volunteers we need we will probably hold an EGM in a couple of months time to discuss how the association goes forward.
Regards
Jackie
