The admin side of running a group

The easiest way to sort out group admin stuff is to get support from a New Group Buddy or visit the resources section of the website. There are also various handbooks and packs for:

• Treasurer
  
• Membership Secretary
  
• Safeguarding Officer

The important admin tasks include keeping a:

1. Log income and expenditure – this can be done in a book or using the template Excel spreadsheet
2. List of all adult volunteers, individual members will receive reminders about renewing their membership and CRB Disclosures
3. Folder of all medical and consent forms (available to download from the Safeguarding section) for all children and young people

Other tasks are linked to group activities and include programme planning, venue liaison, risk assessment and communication to children, volunteers and parents.
