Legal Structures
Tues 9th July 2019

This workshop will cover basics of legal and governance structures for voluntary and community organisations. We will explore the pros and cons of the most commonly used structures such as:

● Community Interest Companies
● Charities 
● Registered societies.

We’ll look at the implications for each one on your community work and funding. We’ll look at the benefits of incorporating a legal entity versus remaining an unincorporated organisation and discuss issues around 
responsibilities of directors and trustees.

- Positive responses from our events

Bob Greig, Director of The Family Law Panel, attended one of our workshops on social impact. He said: “A superb session! I came thinking this was going to be nearly impossible for us to do. I leave 100% clear on social impact. Quite brilliant.”
“I attended the ‘Difference You Make' training event last summer. I have to say, it has lived with me ever since. I was given ideas, tools and most of all, confidence! Thanks so much.” Rev Chris Clewer – Chairman, Churches Together in Plymouth.”
“Thank you very much for your very informative, interesting and practical session on legal structures at the Engine Room yesterday.
I was completely in the dark at the beginning of the session, learned a huge amount during the session, and by the end felt like I knew enough to at least know what I need to find out next before I take the next steps to formalising a legal structure. Much appreciated
.” Katie, Cornwall Engine Room client
