Could you be our next Treasurer? Did you know PATA is a charitable organisation?  Like many community settings, PATA is managed by a group of Committee Members (known as our Board of Trustees). Our Trustees give up their own time and work quietly in the background to keep things running smoothly.  This allows us to concentrate on supporting both our Members and our Managed Groups, whilst working towards our charitable aims. The Board of Trustees are now recruiting for a new Treasurer to join their friendly team: "A special someone who can advise on financial responsibilities and oversee the preparation and scrutiny of our annual accounts"    Could you or someone you know be that person?  We'd love to hear from you! Further details can be found here.    If you'd like to speak to us prior to your application, please email chiefexec@pataglos.org.uk or call 01452 541244.
