Course content: Set up a New Group

This course will help new voluntary sector groups to look at the things they need to do to get started – this includes:

• Drawing up a set of rules (called the constitution)
• Opening a bank account in the name of the group
• Where to go to get help with accounts and funding

We will also cover the basic policies you will need, how to find out about other groups in the area, and signpost to other training and support.

Who can book?

For the Set up a New Group course, you don’t have to already be in a voluntary sector organisation, but you must be planning on setting one up in Bradford district. This includes setting up charities, community interest companies limited by guarantee, faith groups, sports clubs, and other not-for-profit groups with a constitution.

Not planning on setting up a voluntary sector organisation? Not in Bradford district? Sorry, this course is not for you.
