Every year the Christmas Day Community Lunch is hosted at the Belmont Centre in Uckfield. The event is for anyone who may end up on their own at Christmas, whatever their circumstances may be and whatever their age. About this opportunity The Community Christmas Day Lunch are looking for a Treasurer to join their committee, to help organise and prepare for this one day a year event to ensure it goes well. The committee first meet in January to discuss the previous event, before setting plans for the one to follow. Preparation for the event won't begin until late in the summer, where tasks will be established and publicity commence. Early December is then monitoring progress and finalising tasks. The Treasurer is responsible for ensuring that all financial transactions are recorded, and the accounts are up to date. The committee as a whole will plan the event, source funding, input creative ideas, find entertainment, and create publicity. You will also need to keep the chairman and rest of the committee informed of the state of finances, and sign off on any transactions. We ask that all committee members try to be a part of the day itself, helping to ensure that it goes as intended and provides a wonderful experience for our guests. This role is perfect for anyone who is a retired accountant or bookkeeper, anyone currently working in the profession looking to help out in the community, or someone with relevant qualifications seeking more experience. Should you require additional information we can arrange an informal meeting to discuss any questions you might have. This role won't be a large time commitment, as whilst parts of the role take place throughout the year which you will need to be available for, the charity are there to provide an event for one day. This event can make a big impact upon members of our community who might otherwise struggle during the festive season, and your efforts will go a long way to making that happen.
