This year, the named charity contact on our records will receive an Annual Return notification from the Commission. This will be an invitation to complete their charity's Return online or for them to request a paper form instead.

Over the last two years we have introduced a more streamlined Annual Return form for many charities to help reduce the burden of ‘red tape’ and help trustees get on with their day to day responsibilities. We have asked for more information from the largest charities and for essential information only from smaller charities. We’re keeping this proportionate approach for 2007.

Here you will find links to a number of pages with information about the Charity Commission Annual Return 2007.
