Many charities will be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and good governance will be crucial in responding to the crisis. During these uncertain times, strong leadership will be vital in ensuring sustainability for local organisations.

‘Good Governance during COVID-19 and beyond’ is a series of webinars under our Better Boards programme, to improve the effectiveness of Hertfordshire’s voluntary sector, to help aid response & recovery during COVID-19. If a charity is well run, they will be more likely to meet the growing demand for services in Hertfordshire.

All of our courses have been adapted by experienced and trusted trainers, specifically to be led online.

Who is the training for?
All of our webinars have been developed to support voluntary sector board members and leadership staff (whether you are a trustee, Chair, CEO, or senior staff). Each individual webinar will detail who the course is aimed at.
Cost:
 Better Boards is supported by Hertfordshire County Council Adult Care Services, and in response to COVID-19, we are making this webinar series FREE to all VCS organisations operating within Hertfordshire.

Trainers:
 All our interactive, online courses will be led by one of our experienced Better Boards trainers or in collaboration with Impactful Governance, a Hertfordshire based governance training provider.
