- Risk Assessment - We continued our discussion of risks that might be unique to a group of young makers. The kids are under the supervision of their parents/guardians and all must adhere to the general rules of the space. One role of the facilitator each week will be to let any adult makers in the space know about the presence of children and discuss options for keeping the children safe (e.g. barriers or obvious signs, if need be). Continuing to assess risks will be one of our ongoing main concerns.
- Fees - To help defray costs, we will ask for a donation of 3 pounds per family per meeting (for members) and 5 pounds per family per meeting. We also discussed asking families for a voluntary donation of 20-30 pounds at the outset to have a pool of cash for larger expenses.
- Accounting - We agreed to set up a Google spreadsheet to track income and expenditures. Chris and Brian will help maintain the spreadsheet and reimbursing members for expenses. We may look into setting up a bank account in the future.
