Description: "The central message of the book is that being a charity treasurer or finance officer is an important and worthwhile role. It involves much more than keeping the books: the treasurer or finance offcer is a key person in all kinds of strategic decisions and in ensuring the organisation meets the requirements of charity law. Contrary to popular belief, the role does not require massive accounting knowledge, or a brilliant head for figures: simply a commitment to the importance of financial resources, and a willingness to see them used effectively for the pupose of charity"--Taken from the preface
