Thinking about setting up your own not for profit? Not sure which structure would best suit you, or how to go about registering? This is the first session in a series of two on creating a not-for-profit organisation.
About this event
Are you are thinking about setting up a new not-for-profit organisation? Or perhaps you are running a small charity and are now considering formalising, but are not sure where to start? If so, then this session is for you.
In this one-hour online Zoom session we will cover:
- The key questions you must ask yourself to decide which type of charity or CIC would suit you best
- An introduction to and the pros and cons of the various types
- Where you can go for help and support
Those attending will be issued with a resource pack of toolkits that enable anyone to create their own charity, or CIC, as well as others on key topics, such as registering for Gift Aid, fundraising and opening a bank account.
