Our board, polices, and accountability
Governance
Our board governance is carried out by volunteer members with expertise in law, finance, healthcare, and the non‑profit sector. The board meets regularly and provides strategic oversight. Several committees support this work. The Audit and Finance Committee and the Governance and Risk Committee meet frequently and report to the board at each meeting. The Audit and Finance Committee maintains financial oversight, while the Governance and Risk Committee monitors legal and regulatory compliance, governance practice, and organisational risk. Additional committees are convened when needed by the CEO, Chairperson, or a Director [Trustee].
