Date: Tuesday 4th November 2014
Time: 6pm-8,45pm (Arrival and registration from 5.30pm)
Location: Cass Business School, 106 Bunhill Row, London, EC1Y 8TZ
Price: £25 (usually £50 - half price to celebrate Trustees' Week 2014!)
The session will be led by Judith Miller of Sayer Vincent, and aims to introduce those who are new to charities or less experienced in charity accounting to the key aspects of charity governance and management. As well as interactive group exercises, there will be a full set of notes to take away adding valuable information on taxation for charities, the accounting framework and a list of resources.
This will be an excellent opportunity to brush up on knowledge and
skills and question one of the leading experts in charity accounting.
There is usually a small charge of £50 for the master class. However, to celebrate Trustees’ Week 2014,
the cost is only £25. We are particularly grateful to Sayer Vincent and Cass
Business School whose support is helping subsidise this event.

Assignments are tailored to the way individual clients work. Judith is an experienced trainer and facilitator and designs bespoke development days for clients, as well as speaking at conferences and leading our client seminars. She supports clients achieve their objectives and makes areas that can be seen as complex and inaccessible, or perhaps just dull as vital, interesting and accessible.
