Clerking Service

Our Service

Our clerking service includes meeting support which means that you have everything you need in order to have an efficient and effective governing board:

  • A well-trained and dedicated governance professional to offer support and advice within your meetings, who is backed up by an experienced office team to ensure that the business of the board is properly conducted
  • 6 hours worth of regular meeting support from a trained and dedicated governance clerk per year. Additional meeting hours beyond the 6 hours are changed at our standard hourly rate
  • We also provide experienced clerking and meeting support for special meetings and panels, such as Governor Disciplinary Panels and Complaint Hearings. This is charged at the rate for Extraordinary Meetings.
  • The service provides reassurance that the business of the governing board and committees is carried out efficiently and effectively, thereby demonstrating that the board is fulfilling its core functions
  • Support with business planning and agenda setting where required
  • Where appropriate, you will be provided with, or signposted towards, specialist advice needed by boards
