Charities are part of British life. They range from small groups meeting local needs with few resources to the well-known major charities with budgets of millions.

Whatever their size or purpose, an essential requirement of all charities is that they operate for the public benefit and independently of government or commercial interests.

The Charity Commission is established by law as the regulator and registrar for charities in England and Wales. They provide a wealth of information for charities on subjects such as trustees and fundraising. Please visit the Charity Commission website for further information.
