Volunteers

We'll be losing two valued shop volunteers before the end of the year and are urgently looking for a few people who might feel like doing one or two four hour shifts in a lovely and stimulating environment. Unfortunately, no one has so far some forward or shown any interest in taking over as volunteer co-ordinator. Due to other commitments I'll only be able to look after the accounts and administration side next year. The CEC can only function if the front desk is manned. Campaigns like our current water issue are important but costly, and apart from a small GVEHO grant and membership fees, the money raised in our Gift Shop and Op Shop is our only income to cover rent, phone, photocopier and other running expenses plus varying campaign costs. The volunteer co-ordinator's main task is to ensure that the Centre stays open for sales, information, access to the Resource Library and as a base for active and passive members.
