 Club Strives for Club Mark Status

The club officers are currently reviwing all policies and procedures to ensure that they comply with the guidlines given by FDSW/DSW to reach their club mark status it is anticipated that everything will be in place to be submitted for approvalby early January after which time the club will be authorised to use the club mark logo and benefit from the reduced membership to FDSW

This has been a strenuous task and it is surprising how policies become out of date when they are not continually being checked.

 

Getting club mark will be the first hurdle it will then be necessary to review all the policies at frequent intervals to ensure that they are always up to date.

 

When the club reaches this goal it will be recorded on these pages
