Volunteers needed for the CommitteeHowever the League does need new members to assist the committee with new ideas and suggestions so that we remain in touch with the memberships wishes and sustain ourselves into the future. Committee duties are not onerous but require commitment to attend the quarterly meetings; these meetings are normally held in Oxfordshire and reasonable travelling expenses may be claimed.
If you have time to spare and would like to help the Committee in any way, no matter how small, then please let the Secretary know, your help would genuinely be appreciated and most welcomed.
