Charities Governance Check In

Established in 2022, and with over 5400 registrations to date, Board Talks are where our not-for-profit governance community gather to explore key topics relevant to our sector.

Board Talks is led by governance thought leader Rose Hiha-Agnew (CGA Chief Executive) with a panel of community experts our guests explore and share their thoughts and ideas on key governing topics.

What you need to know

The Charities Amendment Act 2023 introduced a new legal requirement: every registered charity must review its governance procedures at least once every three years. The clock started ticking on 5 October 2023, which means your first review is due by October 2026.

This session will cover:

  • What’s changed under the Act and why it matters for your board.
  • What a governance review involves — practical steps and tools to get it right.
  • How to stay compliant and audit-ready without unnecessary complexity.

Practical, actionable, and designed for community governance leaders.

Guest speakers will be announced shortly!
