Community Toolkit
Further information on these topics and more can be found on our Community Toolkit online resource.  For all matters relating to the structure and governance of a community group go to the Organisational section.  Your group can build your own 'manual' of information direct from the Community Toolkit - Look for the Print Page facility on the pages you need.

The Community Toolkit also includes a library with sample constitutions and policies for you to download as templates.  These can then be tailored to your group's own requirements.  Click here to go to the File Library.
