  Treasurer training - free places for RNN members!

  10:00 - 13:00Third Floor, Reading Central Library

  Abbey Square, Reading RG1 3BQ.

  If you are new to the role of treasurer, have done it for a while but would like to be sure you’re doing the right thing, or would like to find out more about being a treasurer this course is for you. If you aren’t yet volunteering as a treasurer but would like to, RVA can then help place you with an organisation to put your new skills into practice.

  Aims of the workshop
  -To build understanding of the role of a treasurer in a small voluntary organisation
  -To ensure the ability to deal with the specifics of the finances of a small voluntary organisation.
  -To leave the workshop confident about the issues that are likely to face the treasurer of a small organisation.

  Learning outcomes
  The content covered will be tailored depending on the needs of delegates on the day. However typically attendees will:
  -Understand their financial responsibilities as trustees
  -Understand the particular requirements for the accounts of a small voluntary organisation
  -Be aware of corporate governance issues facing small voluntary organisations
  -Be ready to resolve issues with record keeping and know where to get help if they need it
  -Be able to determine if the organisation they volunteer with needs an audit or independent examination of their accounts.

  The workshop will be open to up to 12 delegates. It will be aimed primarily at new volunteers who wish to act as treasurers in Reading’s voluntary sector.

  The course is at our reduced rate of £40 for Reading-based charities and community groups. There are a limited number of FREE places for RNN members using the usual promotional code - please contact us at info@rgneighbours.net if you need this code.
