New ECF Treasurer sought
We are looking for a new treasurer to take over from Anne Nelson in the Summer of 2022. The role does not demand a great deal of time. It involves
a) sending out invoices to members for subscriptions once a year in June and chasing up payments
b) paying bills - these have been minimal since we moved to Zoom
c) presenting accounts/up to date financial information at Steering Group meetings and the AGM
The Treasurer is a member of the Steering Group and attends meetings of the group.
Anne has committed to work with the new treasurer in the Summer to ensure a smooth transition. If you wish to have a conversation about the role please contact Anne on anne.nelson@chunkychips.com
