Marks of distinction
Rosie Chapman summarises the revised Hallmarks of an Effective Charity guidance...
Achieving, and maintaining, effectiveness is a top-to-bottom job. Our revised guidance The Hallmarks of an Effective Charity recognises that effectiveness needs to be integrated throughout an organisation for all its functions to be fully effective. The six Hallmarks don’t replace the Good Governance Code1, which is owned by the sector – both are complementary. There is, however, always scope to see if some aspects of the updated Hallmarks can supplement or strengthen your charity’s approach to effective governance, management and operation. The complete Hallmarks are available on our website and they give every charity the confidence to develop their framework and evolve innovatively within it.
