When setting off on the formation of charities, Foundations or Trusts, you will need a governing document that details the purpose of the charity, how its income will be spent and how it will be run.
The type of documentation that will be required will depend on the ‘entity’ you choose for your charity. Types of entity include an unincorporated association, a Trust, a company limited by guarantee and a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO)
