Grands Vaux Youth Centre
We are a small committee with a large amount of young people attending our youth project. We have all that we need minus a treasurer! We meet 6 times a year, are in a good space financially and just missing someone to keep us in check!
If you are interested in a coffee and meet up do let me know. Jackie de Almeida, Team Leader, JackieAlmeida@jys.je

The Treasurer has a watchdog role over all aspects of financial management, working closely with other members of the Project Committee to safeguard the Youth Project’s finances.
If the Treasurer wishes to participate in Grands Vaux activities, such as fundraising or helping with activities, we will need to be in receipt of a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
