Coronavirus guidance for clinicians and NHS managers

https://www.england.nhs.uk/coronavirus/

Since the UK government advised that employees work from home to contain the spread of COVID-19, millions of workers have gone remote. That means a whole host of employees who has never worked from home are having to adjust.

Coronavirus is having a major impact on charity events and the government’s health advice may lead to some charities having no choice but to decide to cancel or postpone their AGMs and other critical meetings.

If as trustees, you decide it is necessary to do so, you should record this decision to demonstrate good governance of your charity. This is particularly important if it is not possible to hold your AGM which may make it difficult for you to finalise your annual reports and accounts.

In the current situation, it may be difficult to hold face-to-face meetings. Some charities have clauses in their governing documents that allow them to meet virtually or to use telephone facilities, so we advise trustees to check their governing document and see if they can make amendments themselves to facilitate changes as to how or when meetings are held.

Guidance for trustees on what matters may need to be reported as a serious incident during the coronavirus pandemic.
