MORA Needs Your Help!!!

Are you a Shirley resident who wants to help out in your community?

We are looking for volunteers to join Monks Orchard Residents’ Association as Committee Members.

Our committee includes people of all ages, and from all walks in life. Importantly, we are non-political. What we have in common is we’re passionate about where we live and our community. We give up our time for a couple of hours each month to discuss local issues affecting Shirley and Monks Orchard. Due to coronavirus, we are now conducting our meetings online via Zoom.

With all these plans for Shirley from Croydon Council at the moment, there is plenty going on and we need to add to our team.

If this sounds right up your street and you live within the Monks Orchard area, get in touch at hello@mo-ra.co

So come on, give MORA a hand!
