Responding to fraud: a practical guide for charities
2026-11-05T00:00:00.000Z
| 12–1pm
Join specialists from RSM and Edmonds Marshall McMahon for a practical discussion on how charities can respond when fraud is suspected or discovered.
Fraud rarely arrives with a warning. One day your charity is focused on delivering services and supporting beneficiaries. The next, you're dealing with missing funds, difficult questions from trustees, regulatory reporting requirements and concerns from donors, staff and stakeholders. What happens in the first few hours and days can have a significant impact on your ability to investigate, recover losses and maintain trust.
Join specialists from RSM and Edmonds Marshall McMahon for a practical discussion on how charities can respond when fraud is suspected or discovered. Drawing on real-world forensic, legal and charity sector experience, we'll explore the immediate actions leaders should take, common mistakes to avoid and the longer-term steps that can help reduce the risk of it happening again.
You'll also hear about recovery and prosecution options available to charities, including alternatives where police resources may be limited, followed by a live panel discussion and audience Q&A.
