An updated version of the Charity Governance Code has been published, with increased focus on trustee behaviours and inclusion. Following a consultation last year, the Charity Governance Code Steering Group has unveiled what it describes as "the most significant update to the code since 2017". The code sets out principles of governance to help trustees reflect on how they lead, decide and uphold their charities' purposes. It is a voluntary framework designed to help boards achieve the highest standards of effectiveness and accountability.
