Guidelines for Digital Event

To make sure you get the most from these groups, here are some basic guidelines to ensure it’s a positive experience for all.

  • When logging onto the zoom meeting, make sure you are logged in under your own name so we know who you are and can let you in.
  • During the meeting try not to speak all at once, raise your hand so we know you want to say something.
  • If there are too many people talking the host will hold up a red card so one person at a time can talk.
  • Remember to mute your audio when not speaking to avoid background noise.
  • This is your group so please feel free to share your positive stories and ideas for discussion.
  • To ensure the group is a positive experience for all please avoid using any language or terminology which may offend others. The host may ask you to leave the group if necessary.
  • Please respect the confidentiality of others by not sharing personal information outside the group.
  • The host may be required to report anything where they feel an individual may be of risk to themselves or others.

Thank You for your co-operation.
