Staff adopt AI tools long before any board discusses them. This free screener checks your six core duties against the Charity Governance Code, ICO guidance, and Charity Commission trustee duties, the same evidence standard every time. Three minutes. No card required.
Take the free check →Staff pick up tools like ChatGPT or Copilot long before a board ever discusses them. The Charity Governance Code's 2025 update expects trustees to have considered their approach to AI. A funder, an auditor, or the Charity Commission can reasonably ask who is accountable for it. This check tells you exactly where you stand today.
Methodology Mapping Every question, sourced to the Code, ICO guidance, or Commission dutiesContinue straight into the full twenty-question assessment for a governance score, a pre-filled AI policy document, and a board-ready PDF. £179. No follow-up call required.
Is this endorsed by the Charity Commission, ICO, or Charity Excellence?
No. Every question is sourced to the Charity Governance Code, Charity Commission trustee guidance, ICO guidance, or the Charity Excellence AI Governance and Ethics Framework, and the source is shown for each one on the Methodology & Standards Mapping page. The questions are written independently and none of these bodies has reviewed or endorsed them.
Is this legal or regulatory advice?
No. This is an educational governance screening, not legal or regulatory advice. It tells you where your evidence stands against named sector guidance. If a finding raises a real legal question, take it to your charity's own adviser.
What happens to our answers?
Your answers are used to generate your result and, if you continue to the paid assessment, your report and policy document. They are not sold, and they are not used to train any AI model.
How is the result worked out? Is it consistent?
Your answers are scored against a fixed rules model, not judged individually by a person. The same answers always produce the same result and the same reference ID, and nothing is edited by hand.
Is this suitable for a small charity, or only larger ones?
The six duties apply regardless of size. What differs is how you evidence them, a small charity might have a single trustee minute where a larger one has a formal policy. The check is looking for evidence, not scale.
What do we get for £179?
The full twenty-question assessment: a governance score, a dimension-by-dimension breakdown with sourced findings, a pre-filled AI policy document, and a board-ready PDF report. One fixed fee, no follow-up call required.
Can we retake it later?
Yes. AI use and board oversight both change over time. Ongoing Review, revisiting your policy and checking practice against it, is one of the six duties the assessment checks for.
Who built this?
The Trustee AI Oversight Assessment is built on AQE's fixed-rules qualification engine. Every result comes from a fixed rules model rather than a written opinion, so the same answers always produce the same finding.
