Boards should play a key part in your organisation’s approach to fundraising, with oversight and responsibility to keep all activity aligned with your mission and values.
2020 was the first virtual awards ceremony for the Charity Governance Awards. Although we couldn’t be together at Clothworkers’ Hall to raise a glass, we were still able to applaud the inspiring work of the 21 shortlisted charities.

With the UK economy continuing to grow, wages outstripping inflation and employment on the rise it has never arguably been a better time for the social sector to think more strategically about its approach to board recruitment and development. However, life is never that simple. Especially with the challenge of three more years of austerity and service delivery organisations facing greater competition from the private sector.
A high performing Board plays an important role in ensuring that an organisation is truly great and impactful in every activity, programme or service that it delivers. The Prospectus Board Skills Audit has been developed, to support this role, as a self-assessment exercise and tool that can be used by both Trustees and Executive Teams to help determine the strengths and potential areas of improvement for your Board.
