Building on the work of the 2019 committee, our club's agreed volunteer strategy is to:
- Ensure volunteers are well supported to ensure the experience is a rewarding one,
- Identify critical roles to ensure backup is in place,
- Ensure reasonable understandable coverage under our insurance policies and compliance with legal requirements,
- Offer, when necessary, tangible thanks to volunteers, in proportion to the skills, qualifications, effort and/or reliability/commitment needed for the role, and
- Review volunteer expenditure (including vouchers and money) and associated arrangements regularly to ensure they are appropriate and represent good value to the club.
The eligibility criteria for this pairs event on Sat 21st March have been changed to be:
Entrants must be over 70 years of age or have 20+ years membership.
Regrettably this event has had to be postponed and we hope to arrange it later in the year.
