Hi All,

It's just over a week until the next DART meeting, so thought I'd send a brief reminder on what we were last time and the progress I am aware of so far.

The fundraising ceilidh is now all booked in and we have Nick Walden calling, so that's now sorted too. Will discuss next week, but we'll have to start thinking about advertising etc. Sounds like Will has this all under control at the mo.

Action points:
◦ HN to share the DART G Drive folder for everyone to make use of - done
◦ HN / TH proofread CW page, BS to review - I think updates are done on this, we just need to figure out the logistics of the thank you postcard idea. Becky would you like to have a review?
◦ HL to confirm whether “hopeful” grant application requires charitable status - Hannorah? How's this going?? I think you said it was due in March? Do you need help writing? If so, Tori is happy to help
◦ HTD to add page to TR website - any updates? Should have the crowdfunding page available for you v soon!
◦ All consider things to do whilst away
◦ TH to draft why we might need to be a charity and assess implications if not a charity. HN to help update. HL/ES provide info - any update? Starting to reach a point where applying for charity status is pointless - given it will take about 2 months to do and the faff currently outweighs the benefit.
◦ EH review banking implications of becoming a charity - Emma, I wouldn't worry about this if you haven't done it as what the benefit of being a charity would be as this is basically unclear at the mo

If we wish to look at corporate sponsorship we will need someone to take this on.

Thanks,
Hannah
