An online event for new and existing trustees in Cardiff to share and learn more about trusteeship, delivered by C3SC.

We know that Management Committee Members and Trustees deliver vital leadership roles in charities and not-for-profit groups across Cardiff. We also know that many Management Committee Members and trustees value opportunities to build and share their skills and experience with peer Networks.

Safeguarding – is everybody’s business – should be a priority for all the Management Committee Members and Trustees of charities and not-for-profit groups, especially those working with children, young people and vulnerable adults. Good and appropriate safeguarding provides public reassurance about your charity / community group and contributes to the positive reputation of the charitable sector in general.

C3SC Trustees Network will meet on Tuesday 20th August 2024 with a one hour and a half online session between 14:00pm-15:30pm.

Join us at this session which will feature a presentation from Carol Eland, Regional Outreach Adviser (Wales) at UK government Disclosure and Barring Services who will run an “Advice Cafe” on safeguarding, safer recruitment, levels of certificates, regulated activity and legal duty to refer. Management Committee Members and Trustees will have an overview of their responsibilities on safeguarding.

The Forum gives an opportunity for people who have safeguarding responsibilities in charities, voluntary organisations and community groups (including staff who hold the portfolio for safeguarding) to come together, share learning and good practice, make alliances and receive up to date information from the guest speaker and presenter. They will also help to co-produce the agenda going forward.

Alongside networking opportunities, the Trustees network meetings are an opportunity for members of C3SC to come together with like-minded peers and connect with partners to provide insight, influence, and develop solutions to local challenges.

We are inviting your views to find out how the C3SC Trustee’s network can help Management Committee Members and Trustees to be more confident and connected in your role. Please take a few minutes to answer the following questions: Cardiff Trustee’s Network-Survey
