Please find the minutes from last night's DART meeting attached, with key action points at the bottom of this email.

One key thing to note is that we are not a charity at the moment. If we had everything lined up now I think we could get there in about 6-8 weeks. However, there is not currently a strong argument for why we need this, so Tori is going to pull this together, but she will need info on how much of the grants we need to be a charity for. We also need to understand the implications for fundraising if we are not a charity. Thanks for taking this on Tori! Hannorah / Emma S I think you should have some of the info that will help with this...

I created a folder on the Ravens G Drive for DART stuff, please feel free to make use of it for sharing stuff:

Clare, I'm hoping to whizz through a proofread of your crowdfunding page shortly and think Tori might be looking at this too? Will you be around to make changes later? Think a couple of typos were spotted last night. I imagine Becky will want a look before it goes live and there was a hope that maybe we can get it ready by tomorrow...

Thanks,

Hannah
