It’s sometimes easier to point out examples of poor charity governance, but we know that’s not the whole story. Examples of good governance can be found throughout the sector, and we’re here to shine a light on transformational trusteeship and inspire others to achieve more.

For our TENTH ANNIVERSARY awards, we’re focused on four key areas (with five categories) for 2025, covering areas of charity governance that resonate with the challenges – and successes – of the third sector in recent years.

Award Categories

1. Board Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
2. Challenge to Change
3. People in Governance
4. Improving Impact in Small Charities
   1. One category for charities with 0-3 paid staff
   2. One category for charities with 4-30 paid staff
