Before you apply to register a new charity, you must read our public benefit guidance. This will explain how your application should demonstrate that your organisation's aims are charitable for the public benefit. It cannot have some aims which are charitable and others which are not. Our guidance on charitable purposes sets out which aims ('purposes') are considered to be charitable and why.
Please note:
We are required to make available for public inspection copies of the trusts of any registered charity that have been supplied to us. This is usually done by supplying a copy of the governing document. Therefore any personal details that have not been redacted (blanked out) will be available to the public to view.
Please note that the public register of charities only displays the names of trustees and not addresses.
