Event Budget, Cash Handling and Settlement Record
About this document
Events can involve large sums of money changing hands quickly, often in cash and in busy conditions. A realistic budget helps you decide whether the event is viable, and clear cash procedures protect your volunteers and staff, reduce the risk of loss and theft, and make the accounts straightforward.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
