Charity Governance Code update

A revised version of the Charity Governance Code was published in Autumn 2025, following a sector-wide consultation in 2024. The update aims to reflect evolving best practices in governance, including diversity, digital transformation, and environmental responsibility as well as a focus on accessibility, proportionality and removing barriers to use. The new code will provide clearer guidance on trustee responsibilities, board effectiveness, and stakeholder engagement. Charities are encouraged to review their governance frameworks in anticipation of the changes and consider training for trustees to align with the updated standards. Strong governance remains a cornerstone of public trust and regulatory compliance, and the revised code will support charities in navigating complex operational environments.
