5.7 Group Venues

Viewing the Venues List
Venues are required when creating Meetings and Events in Group Schedules and the Calendar.

Click Venues on the Home Page to show a list of Group Venues:

 

Some groups may meet at one venue before travelling to a different location. To deal with this, you may wish to create ‘meet at’ venues, e.g. “Meet at the Railway station”.

“Meet at the venue” can be useful when a visit to a particular venue is likely to be a one-off, or if your Group Leaders don’t have the privilege to create Venues.

Viewing & Editing a Venue Record
Click a blue venue name on the Venues List to see the Venue Record:

• Press the buttons next to the Postcode to view a map of the venue in either Streetmap or Google Maps.
  
  
• Press the Send button to send an email to the venue.
  
  
• Press the …. button to open the website of the venue.
  
  
• After editing any of the fields press the Save Record
  
  
• Press the Delete button to remove the venue from the Venues List.

Adding a New Venue
To create a new Venue Record, click Add new venue from the Venues List or an existing Venue Record:

• All fields in a Venue Record are optional except Venue.
  
  
• Private address should be ticked if the venue is a private residence or somewhere else for which the details should not be displayed in the public domain (such as in online Group information).
  
  
• Accessible may be ticked to indicate that the venue is fully accessible for wheelchairs, etc.
  
  
• Press the Save Record button to create the new Venue.
