Governance

The Road Safety Foundation is a company limited by guarantee and registered as a charity in England (No. 295573). The Road Safety Foundation is independent and under the control of its Trustees who are required to act within the powers conferred upon them in our Memorandum and Articles of Association and in the best interests of the charity.

The Trustees are responsible for the proper administration of the Road Safety Foundation, have a duty to act collectively, and act in the public interest. The Road Safety Foundation remains bound by the laws of the UK, including the Charities Act 1993 (as amended by the Charities Act 2006) and Bribery Act 2010. We take a zero tolerance approach to bribery and this is set out in our Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy  adopted by the Board of Trustees in February 2012.

All Trustees must sign a Trustee Declaration and complete a Register of Interests. In addition to the requirements of the Road Safety Foundation’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, it has adopted a Conflicts of Interest Policy and a Code of Conduct for Trustees.
