Governance and Risk Management

Navigating challenges in Third Sector governance and management.

For third sector organisations in Scotland, effective governance and management are essential to tackle challenges, risks, and financial pressures.

Charities and social enterprises are adapting to changing funding dynamics. Grants are giving way to service contracts, reducing available funds for charities to access. Simultaneously, rising demand for services, previously provided by public bodies, compounds challenges.

Economic shifts, funding model changes, and growing demands stress charity trustees. They must evaluate risks, ensure financial stability, and meet operational goals.
