Cleaning rota co-ordinator and volunteers - Orkney

  • VO92167

Description

If you or your child have ever been involved with Guiding, this is your perfect chance to give something back without too much commitment. We are a friendly, inclusive group who like to work together to ensure that the hall is safe for users.

In order for the Kirkwall Guide Hall to stay clean, we are required to have a cleaning rota. This includes parents of the children involved with Girlguides, Brownies and Rainbows. Due to the increase of cleaning that is required (due to Covid) we are looking for more volunteers to join the team. A cleaning Rota co-ordinator is also required to ensure volunteers area available every week.

Organisation aims and objectives

We are a group of Rainbow/Brownie/Guide parents who meet 4 times per year to oversee the running and maintenance of the Guide Hall. New faces are welcome - please get in touch through Facebook.
