About this document

This is a comprehensive legal document setting out the terms and conditions for an after school club as an unincorporated association. By that, we mean any association of two or more people, who have come together to form a club to pursue the common purpose of looking after children after school. Mutual rights and responsibilities arise from the rules which members agree to – that is, this agreement.

This agreement sets out the terms on which the club will be constituted, who controls its administration and its funds and specifies its purpose and goals.

In law, this type of group is called an ‘unincorporated association’ because unlike a company, it has not been ‘incorporated’. It therefore has no legal identity of its own, beyond the identity of the individual members.

The members of course, still require rules by which to regulate their association in the pursuit of their common aims. For this reason, you will need a document such as this.

Whether you organise arrangements for after school care and supervision, raise funds by way of fetes or raffles to help with the group objectives, organise to provide refreshments and entertainment in a home environment, or any other activity relating to after school activities and care, this document is suitable.

This document is our comprehensive members' club rules in its simplest form. That is, there are no provisions for property such as club premises and no provisions for an alcohol licence.
