Your Charity - Get Fit for Your Future - Trustees Shared Learning Seminar, from Wales Audit Office - Cardiff & Conwy, November 2014

The Wales Audit Office is running a seminar for Trustees' Week, based in 2 areas of Wales.

As so much of your attention is often focussed on the immediate pressures facing your charity, you and your fellow trustees can lose sight of the planning that is needed to secure your charity’s future.

This seminar looks to equip you to ensure your charity’s continued success by planning well and future-proofing your charity by focussing on:

* good governance to understand and manage risks

* having the right people around the table to lead and advise

* new and alternative sources of income

Due to the current financial climate, lots of charities are finding that they are having to live off their reserves, and that traditional funding sources are getting more difficult to obtain.  Many face an uncertain future, as they know they cannot continue in the way they are currently operating . To overcome this, charities need to explore new sources of income and make sure those income streams are right for their situation.

The Seminar is aimed at Trustees and Chairs of:
* Public Sector organisations
* Voluntary sector organisaions
* Social Enterprises, community businesses and co-operatives
Where and When
* Cardiff: Tuesday 11 November 2014
* Llanrwst, Conwy: Thursday 13 November 2014
If you would like to secure a delegate place or if you would like to discuss any aspect of the seminar, please email: sharedlearningevent@wao.gov.uk 
 
Places are limited to two per organisation
