  • Understanding Trustee Recruitment and Retention Challenges

    According to the Charity Commission’s Breath of Fresh Air report, anywhere between one in three and one in two charities have a trustee vacancy. This means charities are missing out on the skills and knowledge they need to deliver the biggest impact possible. And it’s making the job harder for trustees who already give so much to their communities.

    In August 2024, NCVO surveyed 294 voluntary sector organisations. They wanted to understand:

    • The trustee recruitment and retention challenges voluntary organisations experience
    • The impact these challenges have on trustee boards
    • Ways these challenges could be addressed

    They have published a report which sets out the findings of this survey.
