Overview

Financial mismanagement can ruin an organisation, result in fines and obliterate trust. Good financial management is essential for ensuring that legal requirements are met in relation to charity and company law. However, it is not the sole responsibility of the treasurer; ALL committee members/trustees are accountable.

Whatever the size of your organisation, sound financial management is essential for development and sustainability. Rather than the finance being seen as a separate function that involves just doing the book-keeping, it should be integrated within, and add value to your organisations fundraising and overall activities.

This organisational finance for voluntary and community groups course is aimed at potential or current committee members or trustees within the voluntary and community sector. The skills and understanding developed will help you to understand why transparent financial management is beneficial to the organisation and wider community
