This session is part of Getting on Board’s Trustee Learning Programme, providing free and high-quality training to support people to become and serve as effective trustees.

Many trustees say they didn’t have a clear overview of their responsibilities when inducted into their board.

In this free one hour session, we’ll take you through your trustee duties in a clear and engaging way. There will be a chance to ask questions and we’ll signpost you to further support. This session is also suitable as a refresher for existing trustees.

By the end of this introductory webinar you will understand:

  • The role of a trustee
  • The main duties and responsibilities of a trustee
  • How to carry out your trusteeship duties effectively

Getting on Board’s sessions are specifically for trustees of charities registered in England and Wales, although many of the principles of effective, inclusive trusteeship are broadly the same wherever trustees are based. This session explores the legal responsibilities for trustees based in England and Wales. Trustees of charities in Scotland and Northern Ireland are welcome to attend our sessions but should check local differences and will find excellent support from OSCRSCVO, Inspiring ScotlandCharity Commission Northern Ireland and NICVA (Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action).
