28th SEPTEMBER 2010 - 12.00 lunch for 12.45 start.
For this session in our series of BiteSize events we are again at Frampton Village Hall and this time we are looking at essential aspects of managing a village hall. This is an event directed at hall trustees, those people that serve on management committees.
For this event I am teaming up with my predecessor, Lois Rose and with DCA's governance officer, Susi Calder, to bring you an afternoon aimed at sorting out some of those myths and misunderstandings that go around. As this can be a bit of a 'dry' subject we will be using some technology to add some fun and variety in to the event and hopefully, not only will you come away from the session with a clear mind on hall governance but you will also have had an enjoyable afternoon!
The framework is roughly:
- You Decide! Some scenarios to consider and to decide what you would do
- Good Practice! Lois will run through what the Charity Commission require
- Fact or Fiction! A little quiz to extend your knowledge
- Question Time! Time for you to ask the 'experts' about problems you may have on governance in your hall
Hallmark will be an underlying theme for the event so if you are interested in applying for Hallmark then this event will be of special interest. Even if Hallmark is not for you then there will be plenty here to interest you.
One person per affiliated hall free, extra delegates £10.00. Non-affiliated halls £10.00 per delegate.
