Committee members needed for the Friends of Kings Heath Park
We've heard that the Friends of Kings Heath Park are looking to recruit two new committee members, one of whom will chair the group.
The committee meets once every 4-6 weeks in the park to discuss future events and environmental work.
"We are looking for people who use the park: dog walkers, runners, parents whose children use the park and so on. You don't need to have committee experience, just enthusiasm and dedication," they said.
If you think you'd like to get inolved, contact the Friends via their website, to register your interest.
