SUMMARY:Charity Structures
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to know what makes an organisation an organisation?
  Let us talk you through the basics\, step by step.\n\nBOOK HERE\nThis is 
 an online practical workshop\, we highly recommend you join the session fr
 om a computer or tablet that allows you to participate in the activities.\
 nDo you want to know what makes an organisation an organisation? Are you a
 ware of how and when why you might want to register as a charity or a comp
 any? \nMaking the transition from idea to organisation can feel like a dif
 ficult leap. The way your new organisation is structured\, the type of leg
 al status you adopt\, and the regulator you report to will all affect the 
 way you need to run things\, your access to funding\, and the way you are 
 perceived. For many staff members and even for some trustees\, the legal a
 nd structural aspects of running a voluntary organisation are somewhat haz
 y\, and once the basics are in place it’s all too easy to forget to go b
 ack and check what else might be necessary or possible. \n This informal w
 orkshop will take you through the basics of organisational structures\, go
 vernance and regulation and update you on some of the practical changes th
 at have now started to come through since the Charities Act 2006\, includi
 ng the creation of the new Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). \n

 board members of very new organisations who are still in the process of fi

 re going through\, or looking to go through\, a phase of organisational ch
 ange – for example\, changing legal status\, taking on a new piece of wo
 rk\, or re-writing their constitution. \n\nAims: \n\n\n 	To provide an acc
 essible\, flexible introduction to organisational structures and charity l
 aw \n 	To give participants an overview of the organisational structures a
 nd governance arrangements available to voluntary and community organisati
 ons \n 	To provide an update on changes to charity\, company and related l
