Free Informative session on Charitable Incorporated Organisation(CIO)

Are you considering the perfect legal structure for your organisation?  Do you live in Islington? Join us for free informative session on Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) delivered by our partner Russell Cooke

Registration: 10:00-10:30

Session time: 10:30- 11:30

Many organisations initially opt for the Community Interest Company (CIC) structure due to its quicker and potentially lower-cost process compared to charity registration. However, it is important to understand the range of options available. The Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), a bespoke legal structure for charities, has been in existence for over a decade. This session will address the following topics:

• Overview of different legal structures (including CICs, CIOs, and charitable companies limited by guarantee) – their pros, cons and key differences
• Introduction to a CIO
• Key components of a CIO constitution (including membership structures and trustee responsibilities)
• Benefits of adopting a CIO structure over other structures
• Steps to establish a CIO.

Attending the event is free to Islington residents, and charities. Places are strictly limited, so please book through the  Link
