Groups & Events
Group Liaison (David Ledsham)
We celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2024, so there has never been a better time to celebrate and ensure GOC`s continued success. Next Steps shows how to help in three Guides for Group Co-ordinators & Event leaders:
- Next Steps
- Notebook of Events
- How to Lead a Walk (shorter version)
- Running an Event (shorter version)
Our original Guidelines for Organising Events (below) is a tried and useful outline of the entire process. While some of it duplicates the new pages above, we have retained it as some people find it very useful. Take a look at this as well as “Next Steps” and you should find what you need to know.
