    My understanding (and maybe one of our professionals will correct me if I'm wrong) is that you can't pay office-bearers a wage but you can award a gratuity in retrospect at an AGM for work done the previous year.

    If I were in your position I would have two motions at the next AGM – one to award a reasonable payment for work done and the other, should the first one fail, to employ someone to do the work at commercial rates.

    I know which one I'd be voting for.
