Prior to appointment new Trustees are provided with a job description and information packs detailing Trust
constitution, structure, key current objectives, and copies of recent Annual Reports and Accounts, as well as
literature on the responsibilities of being Charity Trustees. Each new Trustee is required to make a signed
declaration of commitment and qualification for Trusteeship. An induction includes a review of
company/charity history, structure and organisation, role of the trustees, trust business cycles, staffing,
policies, financial management and control practices, forward strategies, current operations plan, and the
purpose and function of the GGAT HER Charitable Trust. New Trustees are introduced to staff. Documents
are provided in a digital handbook. Trustees are made aware of the wide range of guidance available from the
Charity Commission in both hard copy and digital forms.
