Groups collaborating on joint projects and events can be a lot fun and hugely beneficial for everyone involved.

If your group is providing food and drink at an event it could be held legally liable for contaminated items.

‘Come and Sing/Play’ events are a simple but brilliant idea: you open up your group for a day, for anyone to come along and sing or play an instrument. This tool kit will help you decide what sort of event you want to run and give you practical advice on how to plan and run an event.
