Charities and not-for-profit groups

Charity law experts at Hill Dickinson have extensive experience in advising clients on a variety of charity matters, from the registering of a charity to the duties of trustees.

We have considerable experience in dealing with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, the supervisory body for all registered charities, on matters of law and practice in relation to how a charity can conduct its affairs legitimately.

The team can advise trustees on the implications of their appointment and continue to provide guidance, as and when required, on how to perform their duties and obligations in accordance with applicable legislation and the Charity Commission's latest requirements and recommendations, including satisfying the new “public benefit” test.

Our specialist wealth management team regularly advise on legacies and gifts to charities.
