North - How You Get Started - Starting Your Arts Organisation From Scratch (Workshop 1)

We will look at the pros and cons of different structures from a very informal community organisation with a simple constitution to a registered charity or community interest company, and how each are governed. We will develop a plan to take your organisation forward covering the key tasks you will need to carry out and where to get further support.

This workshop will be held at Voluntary Action Leeds' Headquarters, all other workshops in this series will be held at Woodhouse Community Centre
