Cults Library Trust is looking for a Trustee Treasurer to join their board and support the reopening of Cults Library as a community-led space.

📢 Trustee Treasurer Wanted

Cults Library Trust is looking for a Trustee Treasurer to join our board and support the reopening of Cults Library as a community-led space.

This voluntary role involves overseeing financial governance, supporting budgets and funding plans, and helping ensure the long-term sustainability of the Trust. You don’t need to be a qualified accountant, but experience with finance, budgeting, or governance would be very helpful.

If you’d like to use your skills to support a much-loved community project, we’d love to hear from you.

📆 Our next Parent Council meeting for Milltimber School and Nursery will take place on Monday 2nd March, 6.30 - 8pm via Teams (link to be shared via email from school)

We will have our standing agenda items, plus a vote on our PC and PTA proposed merger. As previously communicated both the Parent Council and PTA elected members believe this merger would be beneficial as it will reduce duplication, streamline administrative tasks, and ensure alignment across fundraising and engagement activities. However, we want to ensure that as our parent and carer forum you have the opportunity to share comments, reflections or objections. You can do so by joining the upcoming meeting or by sharing any inputs via email before the meeting at [email protected]

💚 Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to welcoming you to our virtual meeting
