The Group welcolmed Mike Hills – Secretary. Andy explained to Mike what we need to do.

Minutes of Last Meeting:- Training is available from the CCVS with help recording our financial expenditure. Step 8 in the ‘Getting Started’ Pack.

Help with Fundraising is covered in Step 9 of the ‘Getting Started’ Pack. We will deal with this at a later date.

Alan tabled a Dave Richardson Art Card used for ‘What the Butler Saw’ Play, which is the template for The Kringe business cards.

There has been talk of setting-up more blog sites linked into each other. Alan and Jim to look into this.

Andy to ask Dave Rogers if he would mind stepping down as Treasurer – as this role requires a great deal of commitment.

The Roles and Responsibilities of the Chairman/Secretary/Treasurer are listed in the ‘Getting Started’ Pack which is on the CCVS Website.

We have discussed the possibility of arranging a Networking Party – who, when, where and how much would it cost?

Mike agreed to write up the one-year plan and five-year plan for The Kringe. This can be done over a course of weeks, with help from The Team.

We need completion of The Constitution to open The Kringe Bank Accounts, and as we are going to change our Treasurer, the applications need to be changed with the bank. Andy to take charge of this.

We have agreed to open two accounts; one general; one fundraising, requiring any two of three signatures (Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer).

We need promotional literature and membership packs, business cards and headed stationary - this is going to be expensive – where are we going to get the money from?

We would like promotional literature in time for the Mill Road Winter Fair.

We will invest in a franking machine once our bank accounts are in operation.

We have agreed in year one to target organisations within the City of Cambridge only.

Andy to talk to Yvonne Barr, CCVS about Equal Opportunities Policy.

Our first AGM will be on 2nd August 2010.
