You and your organisation are not immune from risk. In fact, community and voluntary organisations face a myriad of risks, including: uncertain funding streams, working with vulnerable client groups, health and safety hazards, dealing with volunteers etc.
Although these risks cannot be avoided, their potential impact can be minimised through effective risk management. It is therefore important that those who run not-for-profit organisations, whether as volunteers or paid staff, have adequate risk management strategies in place.
