Hi Not come across this before, but seem to remember reading something similar about this recently. Cannot find the thread. Mum has said that she is having problems with Dad, and has asked us not to allow the child to go home with Dad without Mum being there. Mum and Dad are married, but separated. We asked Mum to put it in writing. If Mum and Dad are married can we prevent Dad picking the child up?

Can Committee Members Be Volunteers

Not sure if in right place but here goes. We have a mum at playgroup who is thinking about a career change and wants to do the CPP. So she will need to be involved in a setting to do this.

Also we have just had a playgroup meeting where the treasurers post was discussed, as the treasurer has gone back to teaching and can't manage both. This mum has expressed an interest in the position and tonight she was voted on as treasurer. My question is:- If she is on the committee as treasurer, can she be a volunteer at the playgr…
