Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) or Charitable Company

If you want to be a charity AND want to be incorporated, you need to set up an incorporated charity.

There are two different ways of doing this: you can set up a Charitable Company or a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).

Either of these structures will allow you to apply for grants that are only available to charities, and to limit the liability of your trustees.
