There are two groups who are crucial to the Star’s publication; our advertisers who make the production and printing of the paper possible and the  delivery team who ensure that the papers arrive in your mail box.

The latter are nineteen volunteers who in most cases each cover a block or street, on average around fifty papers. Some of  these good people have been doing it since the Star’s inception twelve years ago and are now approaching a well earned retirement. So it is expected that there will be some gaps to fill in the  team in the nearing future.

We also now require a person who can fill in on a round when a regular is unable to do it due to sickness or being away on holiday. This occurs two or three times a year.

If you can help in either of these positions we would love to hear from you. Please contact: Mike Beckett beckett36@gmail.com or phone 3089 978
