The Charity Commission has created in-depth guidance on setting up a charity.
You can also find lots of useful, detailed guidance on the NCVO website, including a recording of NCVO’s setting up a charity webinar hosted in partnership with Withers LLP.
For further support, contact NCVO’s small charity helpdesk on knowhow@ncvo.org.uk, or by phone on 0207 520 2552. We also offer a range of support for small charities and voluntary organisations.
