Keeping your Charity safe

As a trustee, your job is to act as the "custodian" of your charity - this means acting in the charity's best interests and managing it responsibly, a responsibility which is shared with your co-trustees. A key part of a trustees' job is to regularly review and assess the risks your charity faces. This helps you to manage these risks and ensure your charity continues to fulfil its goals. Risks can come in many forms. This guide will help you to manage the specific risk of financial crime.
