On 2nd February Gordon Snow began his Tus scheme placement with us. Gordon will be working across the parish on maintenance and repairs. Gordon’s professional background in construction, particularly roofing, means the parish will again benefit from completing work we would not otherwise be able to. We wish him well for his time with us.
