What does the video cover?

The video will cover questions such as:

• How do we know if we could, or even should, be a charity?
• Can we be a charity if we have some non-charitable purposes?
• How do we set up and register as a charity?
• Where can we get a template or model governing document?
• Does it matter if our income is over £5,000?
• How long do applications to the Charity Commission normally take?
