This workshop is suitable for new trustees, those wishing to become trustees and long standing trustees who wish to find out more about their duties and responsibilities in terms of the governance of charities.

Good governance is about more than ticking boxes and ensuring you have the right policies and procedures in place. It's also about culture, behaviour and leadership.

It's also about how trustees make decisions, how well they understand their organisation and why it exists.

If you have good governance in place your organisation will grow and flourish. This workshop aims to get you started in this process.
