Climate change legislation and
regulation has a significant impact for charities and the voluntary sector. This is not
only in respect of ongoing compliance issues, but also the
sustainable credentials of an organisation are an increasing focus
in attracting donors.
Our Charities group is acknowledged in
key independent legal directories as one of the leading regional
practices for the provision of charity law services and is ranked
first in the south east, south and Thames Valley.
Chambers UK, A Client’s Guide to
the Legal Profession 2009, states that:
"this Charities team... never
fails to give its all for clients.”
Typically those areas where we are
able to help include:
- advising trustees on the implications
of climate change legislation and regulations and the discharge of
their duties
- the provision of commercial services
to charities
- the provision of charity law services
to charities operating in the climate change sector
- advising commercial organisations on
contracts for not-for-profit entities.
