  1. Drew you have provided a brief 'events planning checklist' template to use for a generic event. This list has clear evidence of your independent research which is good - however you must subtract, filter and refine the relevant information from your independant research as you have included items that would not be necessary or correct for the events we may organise. Remember that every event will require different resources, staffing etc and therefore would this check sheet provide enough detail for you? Events management is all about detailed planning and therefore you must be very specific and consider all eventualities. When you are organising your Arley event make sure to keep all your planning sheets as evidence - we will then scan them for you on to your blog.This work also needs to be created in a table format.
