| Annotation | The report of the Commission on the Future of the Voluntary Sector, published in 1996, challenged voluntary bodies to be clear and explicit about the key issues and relationships governing their work. A Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) Group, with members drawn from the Commission's performance and governance Sub-Group, has responded with a report which provides guidance to voluntary organisations drawing up codes of practice (Towards voluntary sector codes of practice, by Julian Ashby; York Publishing Services). This item is a checklist on good practice for voluntary organisations, and summarises the report's chapter headings: effectiveness; accountability; standards; user involvement; governance; voluntary action; equality and fairness; and staff management. |
