Charities Guide

June 2007

A concise guide for small charities has been issued. The Cabinet Office and Charity Commission have launched 'Charities Act 2006 - what trustees need to know', which is being marketed as a concise guide to the biggest shake up of charity law for centuries. The guide is primarily aimed at those running small charities to enable them to make the most of the new laws.

The press release states:

‘……the implementation of the Act will put in place a more flexible legal framework which will allow charities of all sizes to focus more on their beneficiaries and build on the high levels of public trust they have earned.’

Dame Suzi Leather, Chair of the Charity Commission, said:

'The Act provides opportunities for all and this guide is an essential tool in helping smaller charities make the most of the options on offer. From the new flexibilities to the public benefit requirement, it covers the range of choices available in a clear and accessible way.'

The government is currently in the process of implementing the Act.
