Illuminate Governance works primarily (though not exclusively) with charities.
We’re committed to promoting good governance and ways charity law can help organisations achieve their best.
Good governance matters
Good governance enables charities to deliver the best they can for the people they're there to support
...and Illuminate Governance supports charities to develop great governance.
Governance is about the building blocks that make an organisation work.
It touches on how you:
- Structure the organisation to work effectively and hear the voices that matter
- Convert your passion into a shared, inspiring but practical strategy with visible impact
- Get the right people in the right roles and working as a team
- Give leaders the information they need to make good decisions and keep the organisation accountable
- Follow the law and regulators’ requirements
Good governance needs to reflect the organisation’s needs. It is not a once for all scenario: as the organisation grows and its activities expand (and contract), its governance needs to adapt with it if the organisation is going to be sustainable and flourish in the long-term.
When governance is working smoothly it’s barely visible. But poor governance can feel like wading through mud and when other things go wrong, it makes it even more difficult to get back on track. Mission drift, financial inefficiency or even mismanagement, as well as Board and/or staff disputes are all symptoms of inadequate governance.
