Our mission is to change the face of trusteeship. Getting on Board supports people from all sectors of society to become charity board trustees, and charities to recruit and retain a diverse range of trustees. If you want to become a trustee or learn more about how to be a brilliant trustee we can help you.
We run a programme of free monthly webinars and have a host of free resources on our website, and every year in November during Trustees Week, we run the Festival of Trusteeship. Subscribe to our newsletter for regular updates, resources and news.
1:00:00 Receipt and Payments Accounts (Cash Accounting) can be used by any charity in England and Wales, including CIOs, up to a turnover of £250k per annum, with the exception of Charitable Companies and charities whose governing documents stipulate accruals accounts. This £250k threshold has been the same for many years.
