VANEL are launching our week of activities as part of National Trustees’ Week with an open lunchtime event on Mon 10th Nov at OpenDoor. Come along and find out the many ways we can help you to improve recruitment and retention of Trustees to your board.

Our “Tea and Trustees” event on Friday 14th November is at Grimsby Minster all morning. If you are a charity Trustee, pop in for an informal chat about Trusteeship and Governance and learn from other Trustees from other charities.

A report “Reflections on Governance” has been published which takes an interesting look at the state of governance and trusteeship in general. Read some thoughts about this as part of a new regular weekly spot talking about governance issues.

Does your charity have empty places on your board that you are trying to fill? Tell us about them, so we can tell other people and help you fill them.
