Opportunities and Activities is an independent initiative in Adult Education. Established in 1991, there are now 300 students, 37 classes and 14 tutors. Most classes are held at Union Chapel in Fallowfield, M14 6EQ.
Tutors are paid from the students' fees. The turnover is around £47,000 per year.
The Treasurer spends about four hours per week entering the income into Excel and arranging payments. At the beginning of term, there is a lot of work less mid-term. To give a fuller picture of the organisation other details, such as numbers and ages of students, are also recorded.
The administration is undertaken by a team of volunteers who meet on Tuesday mornings. There is a formal minuted meeting on the first Tuesday of the month, which all trustees attend.
