We accept applications from the following charity types:

• Charitable companies (limited by guarantee), registered on the Charities Commission

• Charitable incorporated organisations (CIOs), registered on the Charities Commission and Companies House

• Excepted charities, not on the Charities Commission but still regulated by them

• Exempt charities, not on the Charities Commission that still comply with charity law

Charitable companies and CIOs must have a minimum of two trustees, and CIOs must also have a minimum of one director. For all charity types, the governing document must not be a Trust Deed, and all parties must be UK residents over the age of 18.
