Set Up Your Own
Setting up a Club or Society

I want to be a pirateStep 1.           

Ensure that there is not already a society organising the same or a similar activity.


Step 2.           

Form a committee who will run the society. In most cases a committee should consist of at least 3 people usually a  Chair, Treasurer and Secretary, all of which must be current students.


Step 3.           

Attract potential members to support the proposal. We suggest approx 10-15 people initially depending on the  nature of the activity and costs involved.


Step 4.           

Complete a Proposal Form stating the aims and objectives of  the society as well as the details of the committee members. (Forms can be down loaded below. Completed forms should be returned to the Sport & Recreation

 Co-ordinator).


Step 5.           

Once your initial proposal has been considered you will need to submit a club constitution.   


Step 6.          

If the society intends to apply for financial support from FXU the committee will need to submit a budget forecast detailing expected income and expenditure.
