Sign the pledge
My charity pledges to work actively to prevent fraud wherever it might occur in our organisation.
In making this pledge we promise to:
1. Appoint
a suitable person (staff member, volunteer or trustee) to champion counter fraud work throughout our organisation.
2. Ensure
that all our trustees are aware of their legal duty to protect the charity’s assets.
3. Consult
with staff, volunteers and trustees to identify the types of fraud that threaten us and the ways we can prevent them.
4. Create
a written fraud policy and share it regularly – with staff, volunteers and trustees – so that everyone understands what fraud is and how they can help prevent it.
5. Perform
checks on the individuals and organisations with whom we have a financial relationship.
6. Assess
each year how well our fraud controls are working, taking into account new risks and making improvements as needed.
