Impending changes in charity law and regulations reflect the increasing demand from funding agencies, the state and the public for an effective, accountable and transparent community and voluntary sector. Getting to Grips with Governance looks at the key principles of good governance in the context of the forthcoming Charities Act.

The Key to a Charity’s Success
Governance is the key to the success and well-being of community and voluntary organisations, ensuring they fulfill their mission, live up to their values and remain viable for the future and now is the best time for your organisation to prepare for regulation by reviewing its governance arrangements and practice.

Get to Grips With Governance
The Wheel and Boardmatch Ireland are offering this workshop and training programme which is designed to support directors, board members, senior administrators, trustees and managers of charities as they apply the key principles of good governance.

This exciting event will help you and your organisation to:

• develop an understanding of the functions that a governing body performs
• develop and understanding of the governing body roles, responsibilities and potential liabilities
• reflect on the development and improvement of practice of governance
• access further information and resources.

Participants will receive a copy of the “Solid Foundations - Getting to Grips with Governance” guide, the first dedicated guide to supporting the ongoing development of best practice in governance for the community and voluntary sector in Ireland.
