Getting on Board is very proud to announce the launch of  Diversify your Charity’s Board: a practical guide.

 

Diversify your Charity’s Board: a practical guide is full of valuable information and takes you through the steps of how to approach the subject of changing your board composition with your existing trustees and chair.

The guide is filled with illuminating case studies and quotes and is accompanied by a downloadable resources pack.

Helping your employees become trustees

Helping your staff to become trustees has myriad benefits for your organisation, your employees and society as a whole. Many organisations we work with are using charity trusteeship as a pathway to personal learning and development.

 

Getting on Board works in partnership with organisations like King's College London and Allen & Overy to build trustee training for their staff into employers' CSR and HR programmes.
