Are you a Clerk, Treasurer, Common Grazing Committee member, or a shareholder in a Common? Then don’t miss this practical evening session designed to help you manage your Common Grazing with confidence and clarity.

 

Using a fictional Common Grazing, we’ll explore the best ways to run your Common Grazing, manage the finances, and ensure fair and transparent contributions. We’ll explore the real-world challenges faced by committee members and shareholders alike. You will leave understanding how to make matters more manageable, what is expected from shareholders, and the information that shareholders should receive. You’ll also receive easy-to-use worksheets to help you simplify your records and bring clarity to your role.

The event will cover:

The duties of committee members
Obligations of shareholders
How to calculate fair maintenance contributions
What to do if some shareholders are absentee or inactive
The difference between maintenance and improvement costs
How to handle payment collection
The ins and outs of income distribution (like resumption money)
Communications
Plus, there will be plenty of time for your own questions, answered by Finlay Beaton from the Crofting Commission and Arthur MacDonald.

 

To get the most out of these events, please book onto both parts.  In Part A, we look at the roles of the committee and dealing with Maintenance payment collection, and in Part B, we look at distribution of income such as Resumption money, and how to deal with collection of payments for improvements on the Common.

 

The meetings will be held in the evening and refreshments will be available. This event is FREE, but please book to ensure your space.
