Free Training: Building Resilience in Your Charity - A Guide for Trustees
Boost your charity’s resilience: practical strategies on governance, fundraising, assets & mergers for trustees.
Charities are operating in an increasingly difficult environment - increased demand for services, funding shortages and increased operating costs are all putting a strain on day-to-day activities.
What options are available to help alleviate these stresses? This session will answer these questions and more, with real, practical advice that will help you get the most out of your charity or not-for-profit organisation.
Specific topics include:
- Reviewing charitable purposes and governing documents,
- Diversifying fundraising,
- Maximising existing assets, and
- Restructuring and Mergers.
