How do I obtain a copy of a registered charitys accounts or governing document?
Copies of a registered charity’s accounts or governing document held on our Central Register of Charities are available to the public. However, please bear in mind that only charities with a gross income or total expenditure over £10,000 in the financial year in question are required to send accounts to the Commission, so you may need to contact the charity directly. You can contact the charity correspondent direct for the most recent accounts. Charity correspondent details are available on our Register of Charities Page. A charity is entitled to charge for photocopying/postage. If you wish to obtain accounts/governing documents of a registered charity from us please telephone our switchboard 0845 300 0218 and ask for our Central Register. There is a nominal charge for photocopying and postage. You can also contact us for further information or assistance.
