Minutes Secretary for the Wensleyale Railway Trust
The work of the Trust is expanding and the Secretary, who is also Secretary of the WRA, would like to find someone who can relieve him of the preparation of the minutes. The task might appeal to someone with experience of preparing minutes, perhaps for a local authority or public body.
The Council discusses the possible use of the Trust's charitable funds, considers fund raising and is now planning a campaign for the restoration of Scruton Station. You would be expected to handle confidential information.
The Council normally meets four or five times a year , usually on a Monday, but other meetings may be less predictable.
If you would like to discuss this job, without any commitment,  please contact David Haxby on 01845 526893.
