Background to Clubs & Clinics

Charitylog's Clubs And Clinics module started as an add-on module to the standard Charitylog system, but it has proved so useful that it is now provided as part of Charitylog's "core". It provides functionality to run (broadly speaking) two common scenarios for Third Sector organisations:

• A regularly occurring group, where everyone attends at once and people may attend on a regular basis (like an IT group, walk club, or similar) which we call Clubs.
• A regularly scheduled session where people attend in timed appointment slots (a nail cutting service or counselling appointments, for example), which we call Clinics.

Clubs and Clinics can both be run in the same way, or optionally, there is a Wizard to speed up the process of running Clubs (though the Wizard is not suited to Clinics).

Further information

This chapter deals with basic setup of a Club/Clinic, adding clients to Clubs & Clinics, running the Clubs & Clinics and some associated useful functionality like transport lists. More advanced topics are to be found in the Clubs and Clinics Module (Administrator guide). In particular, the Administrator guide has more information on:

• Advanced setup of Clubs and Clinics
• Adding Extension Databases to Clubs/Clinics
• Invoicing for Club/Clinic attendance in conjunction with the Accounts module
• Club & Clinic reporting

Setting up a Club/Clinic

Most of the Clubs & Clinics module is to be found in the "Clubs and Clinics" submenu.
