​GROUNDLOCAL is always looking for new members who live on the estate to come and join us as directors. It is a most rewarding role, and only requires you to attend around half a dozen meetings a year, these last around an hour and a half each, and are held in the evening at a venue on the estate to discuss current issues and solutions. In particular, if you are skilled within the areas of gardening or financial accounting then we would be most interested to hear from you. Please use the "contact us" link above to get in touch with us.
