The current committee has done some fantastic work in recent years, organising the blossom trees in some areas, bulb planting, climbing wall, running the coach trips and so on.
However, we’re tired, as we have been running the Tenant and Residents Association since 2007, a total of 6 long, but very positive years!
Unfortunately, there are are an average of 6 committee members, so only a handful of people (who happen to be working) doing all the organising, getting involved and promoting activities.
Imagine the dismay, when as a TARA, we provided wonderful picture calendars last Christmas for all tenants and residents, and the only response received was, “oh, we thought it was junk mail so we threw it away”.
As the chair of this TARA for the last few years, I am informing you that if you wish to see good things being continued in the community, improving the area where we live, and building a good community cohesion, you need to seriously think about rolling up your sleeves, joining in, taking part in meetings and even getting in on the act with the committee, or there may be none of these things happening again. I hope to see more of you at the AGM this coming Thursday night.
