“How to Strengthen Engagement on Nonprofit Boards” Webinar

The National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO, the English equivalent of SCVO) is delivering a free webinar on Thursday 4 September 2025, 11am – 12pm, via Zoom, sharing practical ways to boost board engagement in a time of growing pressure on third sector groups and organisations.

Led by NCVO’s governance expert Aggie Taylor, and delivered in partnership with iBabs, “How to Strengthen Engagement on Nonprofit Boards” will cover improving culture and collaboration, and making hybrid meetings more inclusive, amongst other topics, with tools and insights into frameworks such as the Charity Governance Code and NCVO’s Governance Wheel.

• The Power of Partnership
• Discover how strong, trust-based relationships between trustees and staff can unlock better decisions and deeper impact.
