Setting Up

Group of people celebrating

We can support you to set up a new community group, voluntary organisation or even charity and help to turn your ideas in to a reality.

This section includes advice on getting like-minded people involved, deciding the purpose of your group, and agreeing a set of rules or principles that will govern your group. We also offer information about things you may need to do, such as open a bank account and allocate roles in the group, as well as about the different legal structures that a community group or organisation can use and how to set up different types of organisation.

See our Information Sheets below or contact us for further support.
