In his last public meeting as Charity Commission Chair, William Shawcross said that charities need to “live their values”. That statement seems truer than ever, certainly in the wake of the Oxfam scandal. As the pressure mounts to quickly restore public trust and with the Commission armed with a set of new powers to fine charities and punish trustees, the stakes have never been higher for the sector.
The ICSA Charity Governance Conference 2018 will look at the role of the trustee and how boards can ensure they are providing ethical leadership and effective oversight. Topics include guidance on board behaviours, tackling the challenges around trustee diversity and insight into board evaluation techniques. Technical sessions will explore issues such as financial auditing, safeguarding and managing conflicts of interest.
