FOOTPATH WARDEN
The footpath committee require a volunteer in the Catcliffe,Treeton, Brinsworth area to keep an eye on the paths in that general area. The pathways need an occasional walk over to check for any problems which might need attention and to perhaps investigate any reports of problems that might arise. Maps and assistance will be provided. Please contact Ken Whetter 01142478179.
