Description

This ‘Key Guide’ is ideal for those who are, or are thinking of becoming, a charity trustee.

Now in its 2nd edition, The Charity Trustee’s Handbook is essential reading for anyone wanting to make the most of their role as a trustee.

It provides basic information about the responsibilities of trustee boards and straightforward advice on planning the work of the organisation, getting funding, and managing staff and volunteers.

This edition includes updates on the raft of recent legislation which impacts trustees.

It includes information on the 2006 Charities Act, the 2006 Companies Act, the 2008 Immigration Agency requirements and the tightening of health and safety regulation due to the 2008 Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act.

The Charity Trustees Handbook is now branded in DSC’s new ‘Key Guides’ series – condensed pocket books on a range of subject matter for those new to the subject or for those who want core subject information in one slim volume.
