Not-for-Profit Programme Charity Registration

Please note that this is service is a pilot and as such may develop in accordance with user feedback and experience.

Thank you for your interest in applying for assistance in setting up your organisation and registering it as a charity.

This service has been set up in response to an identified need for pro bono legal expertise on how to register a charity.  LawWorks has traditionally been unable to assist in this area, since the registration requires experience outside of the usual work of the law firms we work with.  We are pleased to be piloting a much-needed service but will not be able to help all applicants.

It is designed to help:

1. Up to two applicants per month.  Please note that this means your application may be unsuccessful.
2. Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria set out below.
3. Organisations which have the best potential to scale, grow and achieve significant impact if they receive a helping hand at these initial stages.  Registration is a process which can require a lot of legal resources.  This service is designed to use these limited resources as effectively as possible.
