Unincorporated Charities... anyone on here know about them? 12:44 - May 8 with 716 views

I've got a question about how a trustee should be elected etc, and the responsibility of the chair etc to inform them of their liability.

If anyone can help, please PM me.

Thanks

The Charities founding articles/objects should include provision for the mechanics covering the election or appointment of Trustees.

Beyond that, and before making an appointment, the existing Trustees should first identify the needs of the Charity for specific areas of expertise, what does the charity lack etc. They should then recruit/appoint accordingly. It is no good a lawyer Chairman inviting all his lawyer mates onto a board only to find no one can add up and that they are going down the tubes for lack of a finance guy.

Starting points for consideration in a private school for example might be Education obviously, Finance, law, property, health, IT, Higher Education, Personnel Management plus one or two generalists. You just need to mix and match the specialist skill sets to the particular Charity.

I should have added that the Charity Commission website has a lot of helpful information that is freely available

Yeah that’s the place to go, I wasn’t able to offer MM any great help. I’m just a jumped up PR man.

This might be the page to start at:

I did get involved in referring to a default constitution for a charity that did not appear to have one a few years back but that was in Scotland where the rules are a bit different.
