adopted for the induction and

selected from those who have volunteered
for the charity in the past or are well known
to the trustees. As such, previous incoming
trustees have not required detailed
induction. The trustees continue to review
this process and will implement a policy if
the current process becomes insufficient.| |---|---|---| |The charity’s organisational

activities through its partner in Armenia,

goods.
