Summary
Treasurer for a volunteer run community car scheme.
Detailed description
The scheme has been running for 18 months, providing lifts to health related appointments, for those who struggle with public transport. We have 20 drivers, 5 Coordinators and a Management Committee. Everyone is a volunteer.
The time commitment for the Treasurer is likely to be about 4 hours every quarter to process invoices and expenses and prepare a report, with a further 2 hours attendance at quarterly Management Committee meetings to present the report. The meetings are usually held in Grantchester and sometimes are on Zoom. In between times there may be the occasional need to record expenditure or attend to minor admin tasks.
The team meet socially once or twice a year and are a friendly supportive bunch. Our passengers are hugely grateful for the service - "you are a beacon of kindness when things are difficult" - and our drivers love to help. You will be an essential part of something that has a tangible positive impact on people's lives when they need it most.
This is the detail:
