Spring 2008 Issue

In this issue: good risk management can save insurance costs; employment and other updates; lessons from America; Commission watch; TechTalk; and a piece on romance in the office.

Between now and early July, our training programme covers a wide range of topics, including a day on risk management and a day on volunteers and the law. Please go to www.charityskills.org/training.aspx to see our training programme.

Our in-house governance consultants are qualified solicitors with wide experience in the voluntary sector. They can deliver bespoke Board development programmes - including Board appraisals and facilitated awaydays for strategic development or problem-solving. Our services have been used by housing associations, almshouses, Amnesty International, Workers Educational Association, care providers and many other charities in most fields of activity.

So - can good risk managment save insurance premiums?
