Session 4:
The Charity Governance Code: What you need to know and how to use the Code to improve your charity's governance with Jo Coleman
Good governance is fundamental to a charity’s success. It enables and ensures a charity’s compliance with the relevant law, guidelines and regulations. Having good governance also enables a charity to confidently work towards delivering its vision. Jo will take participants through the seven steps of the Code, discuss common areas of concern, and make suggestions for how your charity can work towards improving its governance.
A partner in the Charities Team at Womble Bond Dickinson LLP, Jo provides advice to charities and social enterprises from start ups to national and international organisations. Jo has particular expertise in charity mergers, incorporations (including Charitable Incorporated Organisations), charity governance, collaborations and joint ventures, disputes, grant making and fundraising. She also advises many religious organisations on matters of charity law and compliance. Jo is also an expert in charity governance, undertaking reviews for organisations where things have gone wrong and helping to make improvements and drive change to ensure that charities can achieve more for their beneficiaries.
Jo is a former Chair of the Charity Law Association. She is ranked nationally in Band 1 of Chambers & Partners (legal directory) for charity law which noted “She combines an encyclopaedic knowledge of charity law with a thoroughly pragmatic approach.”
