By 2019 the Resources Team was merge with Snackspace Team and become the Resources and Snackspace Team.

Monthly Meeting

The Resources Team used to meet on the first Tuesday of every month, at 8:30PM.

Anyone is welcome to come and request items although decision making, budgeting and buying will be handled by the resources team. The resources team will have a final say on any items suggested but we are open to anything being suggested and a record will be taken so we know the what and why of what decision was made.

We also will sometimes stock check certain items, on a list to be determined by what is used a lot.

Boxes

We will use Wham boxes (The Range or Wilko) for storing most resources so we (and all members) can easily find them. Noted on the core items list.

The ones we use are not always in stock, especially at Wilko, but are replenished frequently. Dclarke (talk) 18:06, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
