DESCRIPTION
Do your Trustees have a full grasp of the charity’s finances when they are presented at Board meetings? Are they switched on or off; do they take an interest or even challenge the numbers; do they offer insights that inform your investment, risk and fundraising strategies; or do they just agree with what’s put in front of them? Good financial management is more than just about compliance and good practice. It can help your organisation to thrive and maximise impact in the communities you serve. Keeping heads in the sand can eventually be a high cost to the organisation.
