Trustee conference
NCVO's trustee conference explores what good governance looks like for modern charities, using the key principles of the Charity Governance Code. The conference provides practical tips and guidance to help you develop in your role as a trustee and support your organisation's governance to go from strength to strength.
Trustees' Week 2020
Because of the coronavirus, we have taken the decision to cancel this year's Trustee Conference, but Trustees' Week will still take place on 2–6 November. Trustees' Week is an opportunity to highlight the excellent work of trustees, support boards to improve their governance, and encourage new people to consider trusteeship and volunteering opportunities.
During the week we will be running a number of online activities. Visit the Trustees' Week page for more information.
