Trustee roles and responsibilities with Burness Paull

This is the first in a series of special lunchtime webinars to look at the role and responsibilities of a charity trustee. Emma Maxwell, Senior Associate at Burness Paull, will provide an overview of the role and key legal responsibilities of a trustee, and areas of potential personal liability. There will be lots of time for you to ask questions and share your own experiences, so you can learn from fellow trustees. You will also find out how to get access to further support and useful templates and toolkits. 

This webinar will help charity trustees understand what to expect and what is expected of them when they join a board. It will help you on your journey to good governance and equip you with the essential knowledge to give you the confidence to carry out your role effectively. 

Anyone who is new to being a trustee or is considering joining a board.

Anyone who has been a trustee for some time but would like a refresher. 

This event is free for SCVO member organisations and members of the SCVO Trustee Network
