Upcoming Training for Communities across Dorset:
Community Spaces Networking:
Keeping Costs Down
Wednesday 18th June 2025
10am-11.30am
Online via Zoom
The next networking meeting will concentrate on how you can keep the costs down. We will be looking at energy costs and big-ticket items such as annual insurance.
Speakers at the event are:
- Adam Mussellwhite from Norris & Fisher who will be looking at how to get the best deals – and save money with Hallmark
- Kimberley Page from Utility Aid will be talking about getting the best tariffs and dealing with problem bills
We will also have updates on policy changes affecting community spaces (such as Martyn’s Law below), current funding news and an opportunity to share your own news and views and to ask the network any burning questions.
Roles and responsibilities of Community Spaces Trustees
Wednesday 25th June
5.30pm – 7pm
Online via Zoom
Aimed at ensuring that trustees are confident in the role and understand how they can contribute valuable experience and skills, this longer session will be useful for newer trustees, and as a refresher for established volunteers. The session will look at the legal and strategic responsibilities of trustees. It will de-mystify some of the things that are required and identify sources of help and information. You will be able to network with other trustees and share your ideas.
