The campaign is designed to drive awareness and uptake of the regulator’s 5-minute guides, which together make up an introduction to the ‘core syllabus’ that they are keen all charity trustees should be familiar with.
In November 2020 VAL wrote a blog when the first 5 minute guides were introduced.
The 5 minute guides on offer at that stage were:
- Managing Charity Finances
- Charity Purposes and Rules
- Managing conflicts of interest in a charity
- What to send to the Charity Commission and how to get help
- Making decisions at a charity
The blog titled Trustees Week 2020 – What’s new to read and action can be accessed here.
In November 2021 a further 5 minute guide was added called:
- Safeguarding for charities and trustees
That guide can be accessed here.
