Charity Commission

The Charity Commission is a regulatory body in England and Wales that oversees registered charities. Its main responsibilities include ensuring charities operate legally, remain transparent, and use their funds effectively for charitable purposes. The Commission helps protect the public by maintaining a register of charities and providing guidance on best practices. It also investigates complaints and acts against fraudulent or mismanaged charities. By promoting trust and accountability, the Charity Commission plays a crucial role in maintaining public confidence in the charity sector.
