Rhossili Village Hall creates new part-time job in local community.
Josephine Higgins started as the new part-time Hall Administrator today, Thursday 1 May 2008. Jo's remit will focus on the administration of all bookings, not just for the Bunkhouse accommodation, but also for the Community Hall and Meeting Room. From time to time, Jo will also be assisting the Trustees with the marketing of the facilities.
The Trustees are very pleased that, due to the rapid success of the Bunkhouse (completed in 2007), they have been able to create this new job in the local community. At the recent Annual Community Meeting the Trustees announced significant discounts to local people who wish to hire the Hall and Bunkhouse facilities. Local groups that use the Hall on a regular basis can also be offered financial assistance for equipment.
"This is a significant achievement for such a small community and an historic milestone for the community of Rhossili to celebrate!"
