Tools
At the recent meeting of the LNR group held on 26th March 2014, it was noted that the Parish Council’s Insurers were happy for Council volunteers to use their own tools as well as the Parish Council tools which could be either hand tools or small power tools, subject to the necessary training and health and safety/risk assessments being undertaken and that the operative of the tool was competent to use the them.
Please let Jo know if you require any protective clothing or equipment to use with the tools. I am sure you will appreciate the need for the Parish Council to safeguard the protection and safety of the Council volunteers as well as the public too.
A list of tools for volunteers to use:-
2 Bill Hooks --- 1 Bow Saw -- 1 Scythe -- 2 Long-loppers -- 2 Wheelbarrows
4 Forks -- 6 Spades -- 1 Rake -- 2 Leaf-rakes -- 5 in 1 Power Tool
