Hello,

My name is Andrea Ross and I hold the position of the Treasurer on the Preston City Caribbean Carnival Associtation executive committee. I am twenty something years old and live and work in Preston. This is the first time I have been actively involved in the carnival but have enjoyed the event for many years. My time on the committee has been an eye opener, cash flow and making sure every penny from our funders is accounted for is paramount to allow the Carnival to happen, I am currently studying accountancy and I am hoping that the tasks I carry out for the Carnival will help me to develop and enhance my skills and knowledge, at the same time as carrying out an important function. We are working very hard to ensure that Preston City Caribbean Carnival 2008 is a fantastic event and hope you will all enjoy it, I know I will!!
