I am due to run a rally in early October so will be following government and CAMC announcements with interest.  One of the conditions of the rally is that I produce a risk assessment which I have never done.  Does anybody have a guide or proforma or can point me in the right direction please.  Many thanks.

On the payment front couldn't you canvass members of the group to establish how many would be willing to do a BACS transfer for rally fees? There is surely very few people around now who don't have some form of internet banking.

That’s what I was thinking DK. Very simple to do. Although I suspect there are a lot more non users of online banking than you might think!

The club has sent a risk assessment form to the centres afaik.   Naturally non of it completed.  Most of the information is going to be generic.  For example the actions that should be taken if someone comes down with Covid symptoms shouldn’t be any different if it is a Rally or a Clubsite.    Really I can see no reason why the club can’t, shouldn’t publish the risk assesments it has carried out for its sites.  It should also supply Bill with a copy of the specific risk assessment for the site on which the rally is on.   What if a second rally risk assessment contradicts the club assessment which takes precedence?

I've met a lot of people that are very nervous of using bank transfer for security reasons but often use cheques and seem completely unaware that the sort code and their bank account are on every cheque.

Tell head office that you are going to book a glamping pod and I am sure that will bend over backwards to help you.  

Q are you the main Marshal for the rally?

Yes I am the main marshal for the rally.

I just assume that there is little I can do except for adhere to all CAMC site rules and adhere to government guidance, rules and regulations.  I also assume that the law re no more than 30 in a gathering is still in operation so my rally can't go ahead until that is rescinded.

I have a separate account with my bank for the very purpose. For many years I ran a singles group called 'Friends Nearby' and I have an account with the letters FN after my name. Although there were no membership fees it was an easy way to take money for foreign holiday bookings from members.

I still keep it as it does come in handy from time to time
