Who me, a Treasurer?

This Briefing from Voluntary Arts gives an overview of the financial responsibilities and duties of a Treasurer and a guide to managing the funds of a voluntary arts group.

Every voluntary organisation, whatever its size, needs a someone who will take charge of the money, usually called the ‘treasurer’. In small organisations the treasurer deals with all aspects of the group’s finances from record keeping and budgets to petty cash and day-to-day running.
