How trustees can identify, assess and manage risks to their charity.

Charities can face a wide variety of risks which could affect their beneficiaries if not dealt with properly.

A risk is any event that could prevent a charity achieving its aims or carrying out its strategies. Some risks charities can face include:

  • receiving less funding or fewer public donations
  • losing money through inappropriate investments
  • change in the government’s policy on a particular issue, affecting grants or contracts
