In December 2023, we hosted an event in partnership with the Clothworkers Company exploring innovative approaches to governance. NPC’s Director of Innovation & Development, Tris Lumley, was joined by Abigail Woodman, Chair of East London Waterworks Park and Seth Scafe-Smith, trustee of Theatrum Mundi. In this blog, Claire Gordon, shares some key points from the discussion. The traditional model of charity trusteeship raises questions for many organisations.

The Charity Governance Awards are back for 2024, so join us in celebrating excellence in governance across the UK.  At NPC we’ve worked with the Clothworkers’ Company over many years to support and promote good governance, something which is critical to improving charities’ impact. The Charity Governance Awards shine a spotlight on the best charity leadership across the sector and demonstrate how effective governance can transform both a charity and the lives of the people that it serves.
