Martinborough Red Cross needs help

October 14, 2019 October 2019 No Comments

Red Cross are the people who are always there and ready, whether it’s to provide aid and shelter for a major disastrous event or to provide a ride to a hospital appointment. Red Cross are the people who help people.

However it is now Martinborough Red Cross Group which requires help. Not a lot of help, just one person who can spare a little time to help out as the Branch co-ordinator.  This is not an onerous or complicated role, it doesn’t involve a lot of time. The main requirement is to be a reasonably organised person. 

There must be somebody in Martinborough who is prepared to help Red Cross with a bit of their time; are you that person? 

If you would be able to fill this role or would like to know more information about what is involved please give Joyce Hogg a call. Joyce would love to hear from you, her phone number is: 3069 158
