Checking with contractors for insurance, risk assessments, etc
by Westminster Wardens May 7, 2024

May 7, 2024

May I ask, please, what you all do about checking that contractors are properly insured, have done H&S risk assessments, are properly trained on their equipment, etc? A recent H&S survey we've had done has asked us to do some of these checks when we have contractors in, but we are wondering what will suffice, and how deep we have to go. Any information on how you all manage this would be appreciated! In friendship, Lorna.

Please has anyone managed to set up a direct from the meeting bank account to pay the annual Zoom charge? We have not succeeded. Up to now it has been paid on a personal credit card and claimed back. We would like to do it directly. They don't seem to have a procedure that we have located yet! I seems to be only either a credit card or a Paypal account William Waddilove On behalf of the Treasurer of Coventry Meeting

cheerio from Pickering
by Wardens PickeringFMH March 28, 2024

March 28, 2024

Dear Friends Alison and I have completed our time as wardens at Pickering at the end of March. So after 20 years I just wanted to thank all the lovely people who are part of the wardens community around Britain for their support and loving care over the last 20 years, and especially Oliver for all his guidance in recent years and thru the covid times. And bizarrely our little Meeting in North Yorkshire has more active Friends now than when we moved to Yorkshire from Birmingham! Service to Friends, and local communities, through stewardship of our buildings continues to be one of the great gifts of service we can give whether we are paid employees, volunteers, concerned Friends and many other roles. It has been a pleasure to be part of this group. Take good care of yourselves Friends and hopefully the next wardens at Pickering - Jon and Neil will feel a part of the same community in friendship John Lawson co warden Pickering Quaker Meeting
