Ahead of World Religion Day (17 January 2021), trustees of religious organisations and faith-based charities are invited to join the Small Charities Coalition's online meeting.

This is a chance for you to come together in a safe virtual space with likeminded trustees, and talk about issues linked to access, equality, funding, governance, and public perception.

The session will be facilitated by Rita Chadha, Chief Executive of the Small Charities Coalition.

This one-hour event is the first in a series of webinars to support trustees, and people thinking about becoming trustees, particularly legal professionals.

This event involves looking at current developments on COVID-19, imagining what recovery might look like in the city, and the kind of help your community needs. There will be breakout discussions and networking opportunities.
