                        Trustee Week – Charity Commission New Financial Toolkit for Trustees
The Charity Commission have developed a new financial toolkit for Trustees. Clybiau Plant Cymru Kids’ Clubs recommend all Out of School Childcare clubs that are Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs ) to ensure their Trustees are aware of this. The toolkit covers:
- Building Financial Resilience
 
- Managing Finance – 5 minute guide
 
- Internal financial controls for charities
 
- Reserves policy
 
- Improving charity finances
 
- 15 questions trustees should ask
 
- Collaborative working
 
As a member our Out of School Childcare clubs can access Stepping Out – Step 12 by using your log-in to our website for our reserves policy template and our cashflow forecast with detailed instructions. Your Childcare Business Development Officer can support you and your committee with reviewing your finances.
