18:51:13 From Claire Rumney to Peter Wright(Direct Message) : Thank you Peter 18:51:44 From Susie Old : Peter, please may I record? 18:52:00 From Claire Rumney : Peter is now recording it 18:52:19 From Susie Old : Yes but may I 18:53:38 From Claire Rumney : Please leave recording to Peter. He will no doubt be able to circulate it after we have checked with Ray 18:56:50 From Thalia Myers : Which part of council? 18:58:25 From Jim : Claire, when Ray says local authority is he referring to the SAG Committee? 18:58:58 From Claire Rumney : Each council have a department that deals with events and events licensing. I always start with the main email address on the local website they will guide you to that department. Any issues with a particular council please contact Ray or myself because we do have contacts within local councils. 18:59:32 From rosemary : I am looking at our local authority (Lincolnshire county council) website and have got to the LESP event organisers manual - there is no person to contact - it refers you to the district council and there is no reference to a SAG anywhere. 18:59:41 From Jim : Thanks Claire 19:00:10 From Claire Rumney : Hi Jim, yes indeed some events go to SAG (safety advisory group) but start with the initial email direct to the council. They refer the event onto the SAG. 19:01:05 From Peter Wright : Purple Guide is cheap too! πŸ˜ƒ and simpler to use than Green Book in my view 19:01:17 From Claire Rumney : Hi Rosemary, please call Ray or myself for advice on particular events. Numbers and emails above. 19:01:32 From Victoria Dolton : does the purple guide give you a template to work from? 19:02:54 From Peter Wright : No single template. I think the EMP we have provided is a good starting point along with Risk Assessment forms 19:03:57 From Claire Rumney : Hi Victoria, yes Peter is right it doesn’t give you a guide but we have supplied you with a Event Management Plan template which is what you would use to send to the local council upon request. 19:04:14 From Victoria Dolton : thank you 19:04:28 From Claire Rumney : Sorry a template it does give a guide!! 19:24:48 From Victoria Dolton : thank you very much very informative 😊 19:29:17 From Will Clayton : interestingly ive just googled local SAG, and its sent me to the SAG page on the Newark and Sherwood District Council and I have an Event notification form to fill in. Very useful 19:29:44 From Chris Rogers : Or Regulatory Services which most counties have. 19:32:02 From Claire Rumney : HI Will, yes this is what I mentioned, event notification forms are a great way of logging that you have tried to liaise with them. 19:53:23 From Thalia Myers : Who is ultimately responsible for H and S? Secretary? Clerk? 20:00:46 From Jim : Can we have the form to send out to our food outlets please. 20:01:42 From Jim : Thankyou 20:02:45 From binco : Thank you it was very informative 20:02:52 From Marilyn Bracher : Forms for Food and Trade stands will be wonderful, thanks! 20:03:33 From Claire Rumney : We will also include a form for contractors that will assist you at your events. So three forms. 20:07:04 From Marilyn Bracher : Many thanks to all for all your help and advice. 20:07:07 From Adrian : Thank you very much indeed, very, very helpful 20:07:13 From Gillian Dosson : Thank you, informative evening 20:07:14 From Victoria Dolton : thank you 😊 20:07:18 From Kirstin Boutflower : Thank you Ray and Claire and Peter 20:07:20 From Jim : thankyou very much 20:07:21 From rosemary : thanks everyone
