Unincorporated Charitable Association (UCA) Formation Checklist

This is a checklist of the key points that need to be considered when setting up an Unincorporated Charitable Association (“UCA”).

This checklist is based on various requirements of the Charity Commission and Charity Law, but it goes further and considers other issues such as preliminary issues to be considered before deciding to set up a UCA, selection of permissible charity names, use of names, the taking on of financing, the premises the charity will operate from, charity assets, and how premises and other assets may be held on behalf of the charity.

This checklist is in the form of a table which sets out the action that needs to be taken or considered with commentary to assist, followed by empty boxes for the customer to complete as to status and responsibility etc. depending on the customer’s individual circumstances.

This template is a useful guide when setting up a UCA to ensure that all the main points have been considered. This checklist is not exhaustive but does include all the main headline points. How you use it will depend on the size and nature of your proposed charitable organisation.
