We charge £1,000 to help you register your charity with the charity commission, which includes the preparation and submission of various documents including the application form, the charity’s governing document, the trustee declaration form and all/any other relevant documents required for the purpose of the formation of charity at all stages up to the registration of the charity.
In order to register a charity in the UK, you should know about the Name, Purpose of charity and Work it will conduct, the place, Business Plan and the information about the Trustee. We can, however, help in any area you may face difficulty.
In the UK, it is compulsory for an organisation to register as a charity with the Charity Commission if it meets certain criteria. These criteria include: Having a specific charitable purpose that is for the public benefit. Generating income or assets over a certain threshold: Organisations with an annual income or assets over £5,000 must register as a charity. Carrying out activities that are solely or mainly charitable: Organisations that only carry out non-charitable activities, such as political campaigning or commercial trading, are not eligible to register as a charity. It is also important to note that even if an organisation does not meet these criteria, it can still apply to register as a charity if it can demonstrate that it is operating for the public benefit. Additionally, organisations that are Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) are required to register with the Charity Commission, regardless of the size of their income or assets. It’s important to remember that even if an organisation is not legally required to register as a charity, it may still choose to do so in order to access certain benefits, such as tax exemptions and eligibility for grant funding
