An action plan, also referred to as an action register, is an essential tool for charities to ensure accountability, transparency, and follow-through on key decisions.

Responsible People and other senior charity staff can use an action plan to track tasks, designate responsibilities, and set clear deadlines to ensure that important matters do not fall through the cracks.

Documenting actions supports good governance by keeping a focus on outcomes, maintaining clarity, and providing a system for revisiting pending or incomplete tasks from previous meetings.

Charities can use this action plan template alongside our meeting minutes template.
