Starting A New Group
Local people regularly set up new community groups and there are lots of good reasons to do so. Whether it is in response to a specific issue or need, or because you want to make improvements in your local area, community groups are an important part of civil society.
If you are interested is setting up a community group, Doncaster CVS can help. There are a number of issues you should consider, for example:
- What are you going to do? You need clear aims and objectives
- Who is going to undertake what role and which responsibility? Everyone involved should be prepared to take part
- What skills are needed to help you achieve your goals e.g. planning, problem solving, writing skills, computing skills, someone who is good at handling money and keeping account?
- How are you going to go about forming a committee and do you need a constitution?
Our staff are able to offer support to help you along every step of the way. If you want to find out more, call us on 01302 343300 or email enquiries@doncastercvs.org.uk.
