Details

This comprehensive guide offers practical support and advice to anyone involved in the management and administration of charities.

Packed with practical advice, How to Run a Charity offers the reader all the essential facts needed to set up and run a successful charity. From legal parameters and their practical impacts, to finance and managing assets, to the roles and responsibilities of charity boards and trustees, the book offers both theory and practice, with case studies to highlight not only where things can go right, but also where things can go (sometimes horribly) wrong.

The book has been extensively revised for this second edition to cover all the latest legislation, including:-

New law on social investment, the revised disqualification regime for charity trustees and new fundraising regulatory regime under the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016
