Solid Foundations good practice guide
The guide provides factual information about the legal obligations that organisations in the sector face, as well as practical advice on how they can run their organisations in line with good practice standards. This has been done in response to two main trends. Firstly, organisations are becoming increasingly aware of their own limitations and want to feel more confident about the internal challenges that they face on a day-to-day basis. Secondly, organisations are now facing increasing external demands, including a changing regulatory and legislative framework, and it is vital that they have access to accurate information about their obligations.
