The FOTP aims and vision are described in our Strategic Plan.
Rules
As an incorporated association, Friends of the Prom’s rules define how we conduct our business. FOTP is a member of Landcare Victoria. FOTP and its volunteers and members agree to abide by its Code of Conduct. There is nothing extraordinary in the code: inclusive and respectful behaviour makes for enjoyable and rewarding activities.
Incorporation
Friends of the Prom is an incorporated association Reg. no. A0032167S. This means we are a legal entity that stays the same even if its members change. We can open bank accounts and enter into contracts in our own name.
Insurance
All Friends of the Prom work activities at the Prom are supervised by Parks Victoria rangers who brief volunteers on hazards and safety procedures before work starts. Volunteers need to register (sign in) before each activity so they are covered by Parks Victoria for personal accident and public liability.
Friends of the Prom has its own personal accident and public liability insurance cover through its Group Membership of Landcare Victoria. This covers members participating in any Friends of the Prom activities that are separate to Parks Victoria’s authorised activities e.g. overnight camping and organised walks.
