The ‘Next Event’ folder contains check-lists needed to prepare, load for and set-up at events, together with other useful, essential and statutory documentation.

Events Stock Checklist
Used to check off & count stock going to event and to count what returns. From this we calculate how much was used so that at future events we have a better idea of how much to take. This is to minimise the risk of running out, whilst minimising wastage.

This sheet also has spaces to fill in…
– Venue (eg postcode) & contact info (eg mobile phone no) for organisers, in case of problems on the journey.
– names of the crew, along with ‘induction’ check-list to ensure that everyone has essential health & safety info at start of event.
– space for messages, requests from customers, things to do & things to remember for next time
– cash float taken and sales figures afterwards.
