Now the new Community Centre in Manor Farm is nearing completion (anticipated to be April 2024) we need an enthusiastic, passionate and experienced Activities Manager to join us in a voluntary role  until the Centre is open.

This role is open as from now due to a timewaster who was in post for a very short time earlier this year.

Once the Centre is open there will then be the possibility of this becoming a paid role for the right person  – if we are the successful community group to run the centre on residents behalf – and remuneration to be discussed and agreed at a comparable average national hourly rate
