Practical advice and things to consider when becoming a registered charity.
Are you thinking about changing your structure from a CIC to a charity?
Join us for this free, online session where we will lead you through the process, providing practical advice and things to consider.
We will cover:
- Options for transfer (convert to CIO, become a charitable company, or create a new charity) and their pros and cons
- How to convert – thinking through charitable objects, preparing for and making an application
- Things to consider once you have converted.
The session will include an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
