    Governance

    Oxford Research Group (ORG) is registered as a charity (No. 299436) and as a UK company limited by guarantee (No. 02260840). As such, it is regulated by the Charity Commission for England and Wales and Companies House. Both hold copies of our audited annual accounts, which are publicly available, including through this website.

    As a charity, ORG is governed by a Board of Trustees, which has ultimate responsibility for the organisation. The Board normally has 8-10 members and meets quarterly, including an annual general meeting in September. Its constitution is ORG’s Memorandum and Articles of Association (2018), which can be made available on request.

    The ORG Board of Trustees also has a Finance and Risk Committee, which meets quarterly to review financial performance and the identification and management of organisational risk. The Committee is overseen by ORG’s Treasurer, who is a Trustee.

    Names and profiles of ORG’s current Trustees can be found here.
