Viberts is delighted to announce its first charities conference which will be held 18 April 2024.
The keynote speaker will be Jersey’s Charities Commissioner, John Mills, who on the day of the conference will publish his Annual Report for 2023. He will review Jersey’s all-important third sector identifying not only its strengths but also its weaknesses.
Speakers from Viberts will focus on good governance for charities both great and small, external challenges no charity can afford to ignore and the lessons to be learned from the failures of some household-name charities in the UK.
If you support a charity, run one or work for one this is an unmissable event for you.
