GWENT-based housing association Melin Homes is looking to recruit three of its residents to become board members to have a say in its running.

The board is the highest decision-making body in Melin, which has property across most of Gwent.

Three out of its 15 members need to be residents, and three out of the 15 places are reserved for residents.

The board meets once a month and members may also sit on one or more sub committees.

The position is unpaid but all expenses will be covered and you will receive free training to help you fulfil your responsibilities.

Please register your interest by 31st January 2008 by calling Natasha Hill-Cannan at Melin Homes on 01495 745922 or by e-mail nhillcannan@melinhomes.co.uk.
