Hello everyone, I hope that you are all well. There is going to be a Meeting House Matters online session on Tuesday, 20 August at 2pm. These sessions are open to anyone wishing to join and are an opportunity to share practice and discuss ideas that are helpful in the work of running Quaker premises and room hire businesses. This time we will be looking at some of the practical things that help workers, employees and volunteers do their roles well. There will also be some time thinking about the relationships between oversight or management committees and workers. It will include areas such as: * Planned maintenance * Procurement * Service or utility contracts * Tendering * Conflicts of interest This meeting will be on Zoom and will last no more than 90 minutes. Use the joining details below to join. * Join Zoom Meeting: https://quaker.zoom.us/j/81586087624?pwd=aYxukeWCrw0Z80E9OuxIuJuZvXr8do.1 * Meeting ID: 815 8608 7624 * Passcode: MHM-online I will send a reminder about the meeting in the day or so before it happens.
