It can be quite daunting taking minutes for a Committee that you have never met. Prior to the meeting introduce yourself to the chairperson (if you have not met them before) and ask them to either introduce you to the other Committee members or ask at the beginning of the meeting for each member to say their name. The Committee can help you. Although all of the actions will be captured in the minutes, a lot of Committees find a separate action table really helpful.

About 10 years ago I used to manage 12 Committees as part of my role at the time. These minutes were just from the main Committee meetings – I also had to attend and minute other meetings throughout the year. I absolutely loved the job but it did mean that I had to write 48 sets of minutes each year. It was a constant challenge to ensure that the minutes were accurate and delivered in a timely fashion. I also got very bored of writing minutes!
