Maintenance page
Below you can see the maintenance jobs we have planned. If you see something that need fixing, please report this to the Maintenance Coordinator (see contacts page). They will review it and add it to the list, if appropriate. The maintenance team will work through these jobs as quickly as they can. Regular communication is via the maintenance team WhatsApp group.
If you would like to see improvements in the village, you will need to prepare a 1-pager proposal. This should list the benefits, approximate cost of implementation, ongoing maintenance, impact on village hall hire & events etc. The RFO will advise how you can do this. Once complete the proposal will need to be formally evaluated and approved before implementation.
