Restructuring

If you’re looking to restructure or reorganise your charity, FJG Charity Law have the expertise to ensure the process runs smoothly and effectively.

CIO’s (Charitable Incorporated Organisations)

We have experience in helping charities become charitable incorporated organisations (CIO), converting from registered unincorporated charities to registered incorporated charities; as well as various other charitable structures. FJG Charity Law can also help set out formal conversion paperwork, advise on compliance and drafting the property-related documents, and even setting up a non-charitable trading subsidiary for your commercial trading. When you look to reorganise, it is important that you consider what is written in your objects clause(s) and to not drift from this. If the changes you are making will affect your charitable purpose we can advise on the most appropriate way to address this, as part of the overall process.

Above all else, and whatever the objective, FJG will be by your side. Click here to contact our team.

Trustees & Staff

You may be clear about what your trustees, volunteers and employees should be doing; but are they? Each person will have a role of varying depth and responsibility, so ensuring they are on the right path is imperative to securing your charity’s future. Additionally, you may want or need further clarity on the extent of the responsibilities and roles of trustees, volunteers and employees of your charity; in order to ensure they are performing effectively and comprehensively.

Understanding

We know this can be a very sensitive subject for charities, but it’s important you know where everyone involved stands when it comes to the law. Get in touch with our team of charity experts to help you with all matters regarding your volunteers, trustees or employees. From contracts and employee disputes to clarifying legal liability and specific role responsibilities, FJG Charity Law can help.
