This work covers creating a charity and choosing the right structure, such as a charitable company or unincorporated association, including how to draft governing documents, appoint trustees, and secure charitable status. A solicitor helps prepare constitutions, articles of association, and any bespoke governance framework, and guides you through registration with the Charity Commission for England and Wales and Companies House. It also covers compliance, funding, and future changes to the structure as the charity grows.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles choosing the appropriate legal form (charitable company, CIO or unincorporated association), drafting articles or constitution, appointing and resigning trustees, and setting up governance regimes. They manage compliance with charity law, company law, and reporting requirements, prepare key documents (trust deeds, formal solar?), advise on charitable status, fundraising rules, and future reorganisations while coordinating with the Charity Commission for England and Wales and Companies House.

Tagged solicitor Lucy Owen

I recently decided to write my Will and giving a donation to the RNLI - a Charity close to my heart as it Saves Lives. On looking at the RNLI Website I found Richard Griffiths & Co Solicitors in New Milton was closest to my home. From the first Telephone call to the Company I received First Class treatment - Courtesy, Respect and Sensitivity.. Lucy Owen was the Solicitor helping me. A most delightful young lady. I could not fault the time she gave up to me., asking relevant questions to ensure I knew my wishes are exact. I cannot recommend her more highly. Thank You
