Thanks to everyone who responded. I think the idea of an internet group for the officers of the charity is a good one but it will need 100% commitment to its use by everyone involved, such as checking their emails more than once a month <g>. I am not confident that we will get that level of commitment so am reluctant to expend any more effort than absolutely necessary. I will use the Yahoo group as a prototype, if it proves a success then I will look at a better solution.
As far as spam is concerned then we'll have to live with that, it's part of the price. The privacy issue regarding the government is another matter but I don't expect there to be anything which would be of interest to an outsider, even in government. The track record of the UK government with IT projects is abysmal anyway so I'm not too worried on that score.
