Thursday 26 June 2008
The annual conference for Charity Trustees
Royal College of Surgeons, 35–43 Lincoln’s Inn Fields,
London, WC2A 3PE

Bringing together leading figures and specialist advisers in the charity world, the conference aims to help trustees and senior managers develop the skills and confidence needed to govern effectively in a fast evolving environment and address the challenges along the way.

The seminar programme has been developed to ensure you not only understand the problems charities face at the highest level, but can find solutions to deal with them. Speakers will give first hand experiences from charities in similar situations as well as technical updates on areas affecting charity governance.

Thanks to all those who attended this years event, which proved to be a great success.
