👇 Updated Guidance for Trustees from the Charity Commission 👇 The Charity Commission has updated its decision-making guidance to encourage more trustees to read it. The new version of CC27 is shorter and uses simpler language, as research indicated that trustees were not using the previous version effectively. The legal requirements and expectations remain unchanged, but the guidance is now more concise and takes about 12 minutes to read. The updated guidance, includes seven principles from court rulings and addresses areas where charities have struggled, such as collective decision-making and recording trustee decisions. Trustees are generally confident in decision-making but uncertain about some aspects. #Shropshire #Community #CharityGuidance
