At the meeting, which takes place from 7.30pm until 9.30pm at Farsley Celtic’s the Citadel stadium, an update will be given on what each of the different groups have been doing and what they will be doing in the future.
There will also be a report given by the current treasurer and elections held for the FCI posts of Chairperson, Treasurer and Secretary.
Representatives from Farsley Festival, Farsley Community Orchard, Farsley Farmers Market and Friends of Hainsworth Park will be on hand to chat to people and answer questions – each group would welcome potential volunteers to come and find out more about how they can get involved.
