The Charity Commission has published guidance for charities on
complying with the law before local and national elections. The
guidance, 'Charities and elections', is for use by trustees during
the period between the announcement of an election and the date on
which the election is held. It contains legal and good practice
advice to help charities ensure that they retain the essential
quality of their independence whilst being able to use their voice
effectively at election time. The guidance is accessible from the
following link 'Charities
and elections'.
