Opportunities for voluntary work in Southoe village

JANE:

Hello, Jane Fairbanks speaking.

FRANK:

Oh, good morning. My name's Frank Pritchard.

FRANK:

I've just retired and moved to Southoe.

FRANK:

I'd like to become a volunteer, and I gather you co-ordinate voluntary work in the village.

JANE:

That's right.

FRANK:

What sort of thing could I do?

JANE:

Well, we need help with the village library.

JANE:

We borrow books from the town library, and individuals also donate them.

JANE:

So, one thing you could do is get involved in collecting them - if you've got a car, that is.

FRANK:

Yes, that's no problem.

JANE:

The times are pretty flexible so we can arrange it to suit you.

JANE:

Another thing is the records that we keep of the books we're given, and those we borrow and need to return to the town library.

JANE:

It would be very useful to have another person to help keep them up to date.

FRANK:

Right. I'm used to working on a computer - presume they're computerised?

JANE:

Oh yes.

FRANK:

Is the library purpose-built?

FRANK:

I haven't noticed it when I've walked round the village.

JANE:

No, we simply have the use of a room in the village hall, the West Room.

JANE:

It's on the left as you go in.

FRANK:

I must go and have a look inside the hall.

JANE:

Yes, it's a nice building.

FRANK:

Do you run a lunch club in the village for elderly people?

FRANK:

I know a lot of places do.

JANE:

Yes, we have a very successful club.

FRANK:

I could help with transport, if that's of any use.

JANE:

Ooo definitely. People come to the club from neighbouring villages, and we're always in need of more drivers.

FRANK:

And does the club have groups that focus on a particular hobby, too?

FRANK:

I could get involved in one or two, particularly if there are any art groups.

JANE:

Excellent. I'll find out where we need help and get back to you.

FRANK:

Fine. What about help for individual residents.

FRANK:

Do you arrange that at all?

JANE:

Yes, we do it as a one-off.

JANE:

In fact, there's Mrs Carroll.

JANE:

She needs a lift to the hospital next week, and we're struggling to find someone.

FRANK:

When's her appointment?

JANE:

On Tuesday. It would take the whole morning.

FRANK:

I could do that.

JANE:

Oh, that would be great.

JANE:

Thank you. And also, next week, we're arranging to have some work done to Mr Selsbury's house before he moves, as he isn't healthy enough to do it himself.

JANE:

We've got some people to decorate his kitchen, but if you could do some weeding in his garden, that would be wonderful.

FRANK:

OK. I'd enjoy that.

FRANK:

And presumably the day and time are flexible.

JANE:

Oh yes. Just say when would suit you best, and we'll let Mr Selsbury know.

FRANK:

Good.

JANE:

The volunteers group also organises monthly social events, which is a great way to meet other people, of course.

FRANK:

Uhuh.

JANE:

So next month, on the 19th of October, we're holding a quiz - a couple of residents are great at planning unusual ones, and we always fill the village hall.

FRANK:

That sounds like fun. Can I do anything to help?

JANE:

Well, because of the number of people, we need plenty of refreshments for halfway through.

JANE:

So, if you could provide any, we'd be grateful.

FRANK:

I'm sure I could.

FRANK:

I'll think about what to make, and let you know.

JANE:

Thank you. Then on November the 18th, we're holding a dance, also in the village hall.

JANE:

We've booked a band that specialises in music of the 1930s - they've been before, and we've had a lot of requests to bring them back.

FRANK:

I'm not really a dancer, but I'd like to do something to help.

JANE:

Well, we sell tickets in advance, and having an extra person to check them at the door, as people arrive, would be good - it can be quite a bottleneck if everyone arrives at once!

FRANK:

OK, I'm happy with that.

JANE:

We're also arranging a New Year's Eve party.

JANE:

We're expecting that to be a really big event, so instead of the village hall, it'll be held in the Mountfort Hotel.

FRANK:

The ...?

JANE:

Mountfort. M-O-U-N-T-F-O-R-T Hotel. It isn't in Southoe itself, but it's only a couple of miles away.

JANE:

The hotel will be providing dinner and we've booked a band.

JANE:

The one thing we haven't got yet is a poster.

JANE:

That isn't something you could do, by any chance, is it?

FRANK:

Well actually, yes.

FRANK:

Before I retired I was a graphic designer, so that's right up my street.

JANE:

Oh perfect! I'll give you the details, and then perhaps you could send me a draft …

FRANK:

Of course.
