With a roadmap out of lockdown on the way in the coming weeks, join us to find out what third sector organisations need to do to have their houses in order as restrictions begin to be relaxed.
While the voluntary sector has responded incredibly to the coronavirus pandemic, the strain placed on leaders of UK charities cannot be underestimated.
As charity shops remain shut and fundraising events continue to be cancelled, many charities are being pushed to their limits. And with half of charities expecting rising demand, you will naturally want to get back up and running as soon as possible. However, to do so, you may first need to rethink your workforce arrangements and, of course, safety will be a top priority.
At Ellis Whittam, we are committed to helping charities remain resilient, continue to operate safely, and fulfil their legal responsibilities in 2021. That’s why we’re hosting a free live webinar, ‘Moving Forward in the Third Sector’, to help charity leaders think ahead and prepare for post-lockdown.
During the session, our expert hosts, Regional Health & Safety Manager, Andy Hall, and Head of Team and Solicitor, Alexandra Farmer, will be exploring some of the issues that are likely to be highly relevant for charities in the coming months, including complex matters such as:
We’ll be explaining, in simple terms, how to tackle these issues confidently and compliantly so that you can take decisive action and move forward when the time comes.
Thankfully, research shows that 80% of charitable organisations feel better prepared for future lockdowns than they were in March last year. However, dealing with the aftermath of a lockdown, coupled with budget cuts and ongoing uncertainty, will be no easy feat – and this will be key to longer-term survival.
With England’s plan to ease lockdown due to be announced around 22 February, join us for timely, practical advice. Register for free now using the form opposite.
If you have any questions, please submit them using the form opposite. James will endeavour to answer as many as possible during the session.

We moved our legal support to WorkNest (formerly Law at Work) having previously used a time and line law firm. It was important, though, that an all-inclusive fee structure did not come at the expense of quality. Thankfully we’ve been delighted with the service we’ve received from WorkNest.”
