Charity funding
Our experienced funding solicitors have extensive knowledge and experience of advising charities on the legal aspects of funding, grants and social investment.
We provide borrower-focused advice for all kinds of charities, faith-based organisations and social enterprises in relation to funding, grants and social investment. Funding contracts, particularly those entered into with local authorities, can be very lengthy and full of unnecessary clauses and legal jargon. Our specialist finance solicitors can guide your third-sector organisation through the process of entering into funding contracts and can negotiate the best possible terms for your organisation and advise upon their effect.
We also advise on community share issues, community bonds and grant agreements, as well as the more commercial funding arrangements with lenders or investors of all kinds. We can review your constitution to ensure that you’re able to take the funding that you’re seeking, as well as assess any community share offer document for compliance purposes.
We understand that for many of our clients this may be the first time they have applied for funding, a grant or social investment. Our simple and straightforward approach enables us to provide clear and practical advice in relation to funding.
