Committee

Dandelions is a charitable organisation, managed by the Preschool Committee.

A Committee is legally required in order to run a Preschool. If we don’t have a Committee we would not be able to keep the Preschool open.

Our Committee is made up of a majority of parents from the Preschool, who give up their time, to help run and raise essential funds for the Preschool.

Committee meetings are held every four to six weeks where decisions concerning events, fees, policies and staff are made.

The Annual General Meeting is held in November, where a Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer and the general Committee Members are elected for the following year. Parents of new children are always encouraged to join the Committee.

If you are interested in joining the Committee or the 'Friends of Dandelions' group then please reach out to the team on committee@dandelions-preschool.org.uk as we are always looking for enthusiastic members and volunteers.
