Who this package is for

This package is ideal if you are forming an organisation that exists solely for charitable purposes and reinvests all income into its mission.

Typical users include:

• Organisations applying for registered charity status in England and Wales.

• Existing charities restructuring into a corporate form.

• Charitable projects seeking a recognised legal structure.

• Grant-funded organisations that require a company model for governance and funding.

If you are unsure whether a charitable company is the right legal structure, our team can help you understand the differences between charitable companies, CIOs, and other non-profit options.

Fast, simple online registration

You can complete your charity company formation through one guided online process, without paperwork or legal confusion.
