Well Dippy - basically it was that our church (miles away from you unfortunately) once had a paid administrator who did around 12-16hours a week. She did loads of organisational stuff, updated lists, prepared stuff for clubs, newsletters, liaised with minister, talked to people re funerals, wedddings and Birthday partys in the back hall etc etc. Really useful and when she moved on to pastures new was much missed. Currently one of the membership who is traininng for something is doing a few hours on an ad hoc basis - and so my suggestion was that maybe you could write to some local churches etc and see if they have any such opportunities. The way we did it, it was the sort of job you take P with you for or do some from home. I know it's a bit toe-curling to have to write making the suggestion but you never know they may be in dire need of someone to rescue them from chaos!
