Trustees Together Conference

The last Trustees Together Conference was held on Saturday 13th October 2007 in the Gateway, Sankey Street, Warrington. This is an annual conference now in it's fourth year.

The last conference brought together over 40 Trustees of local charities to listen to talks by Alan Clarkin - Charity Commission, Claire Farmer - Charity Trustee Networks and Nigel Bacon - Warrington CVS.

Delegates enjoyed workshops covering topics such as Recruiting Effective Trustees, How to make Board Meetings more Effective and What should go into the Trustees Annual Report (SORP).

The delicious lunch was enjoyed by all and feedback after the event was positive.

Delegate feedback included ...

"Thoroughly enjoyed the morning. A very good event."

"Very enjoyable - maybe consider holding event twice a year and have additional training for Trustees"

"Thank you. I think it is important to have these events for Trustees."

The next Trustee Conference will be held early in 2009.
