Governance and Organisational Structures

Online guide to common organisational and legal structures, including newer forms outlined in the Charities Act 2006.

Governance and organisational structure is critical to the success of the voluntary and community sector.

According to Governance Hub research, many trustees and management committee members want greater reassurance and access to practical information about legal structures.

In response, the Governance Hub commissioned Co-operatives UK to produce this on-line guide about the common organisational and legal structures, including newer forms outlined in the Charities Act 2006: Community Interest Companies and Charitable Incorporated Organisations.
