How to set up a group
Find out how to start your own local support group
In the beginning its best to start small with 3 or 4 members and build up your events and fundraising over time although if there are more of you and you have a wealth of contacts you might want to start with something a bit bigger like a Dinner Dance or Ball. Your Group will need an elected leader or Chair and a treasurer who will keep a log of all the funds raised and money spent on your fundraising.
By registering with Acorns as a Support Group we will give you advice and support on;
- How to use the Acorns logo and the right language to use
- Promotional Literature and fundraising tools such as collection buckets, boxes and balloons
- Guidance on important issues such as Health and Safety
- Help and support on setting up your Group’s Bank account
- Appropriate training and induction
