Do you need some help with your financial and legal priorities?

08 February 2011

Do you want to take control of your finances but are unsure where to start? RCN is currently undertaking a pilot exercise to see if there is a need for finance and corporate governance support to community groups. Examples of support areas are listed below, athough this list is not exhaustive.

Good Governance – roles & responsibilities
Drawing up policies and procedures
Maintaining a fixed asset register for funders
Costing projects for funding applications
Bank reconciliations
Help with drawing down funds from funders e.g. grant claims
Budgets & variance reporting
Income & expenditure reports
Cashflow forecasts

If you feel your community group would benefit from any of the examples above, please e-mail dawn@ruralcommunitynetwork.org with details of which area you are interested in. Please note training can be tailored to your specific needs or problems. Please feel free to contact Dawn on 028 8676 6670 if you just wish to have a chat about some of the issues your group is experiencing.
