All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no remuneration.

As an ongoing process Trustees assess the level of risk in relation to governance, services, employment, health and safety, child protection, financial management and information management. The trustees keep under review the major business and operational risks that the charity face and ensure that monitoring systems have been established so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen the risks.
