You don't have to run an event alone. Add people to the event's team from the management page.

## Roles

| Role                    | What they can do                                                                                                  |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Creator**             | The person who created the event. Can do everything.                                                              |
| **Organiser** (co-host) | Helps manage the event: guests, registration, announcements and check-in. Shown as **Co-host** on the event page. |
| **Check-in staff**      | Can open check-in and scan tickets at the door.                                                                   |

If the event belongs to a group, the group's owner, admins and organisers can also manage it without being added.

## Add someone

1. On the management page, choose **Add Host** on the **Overview** tab.
2. Under **People to add**, search by profile name or username and select people.
3. Choose their **Permission**: **organiser** or **staff**.
4. Save.

The person needs a GatherEasy account.

## Change or remove someone

Open **Manage check-in staff and options** on the **Overview** tab. Under **Current staff**, change someone's role or choose **Remove**.

The event creator can always check guests in, even with no other staff.
