This foresight and attention to detail have proven invaluable in the long run, as it helps us identify and mitigate potential issues before they become significant obstacles.

Thank you Andrew, if only we had found you earlier!
“We have been operating successfully as a registered charity for more than 50 years. However, with the huge changes to health care, trustees were worried our constitution was no longer fit for purpose. Having spent hours and hours meticulously updating the phraseology indications were it would not be accepted by the charity commission. Fortunately we found Andrew and we finally started to move forward without any more stress. He was so patient and clear in his explanations and recommended we apply to register as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation
– one benefit being this would limit the liability of trustees.
Andrew was professional, open, approachable, flexible, patient and prompt in dealing with our queries. We have recently received confirmation we are now registered as a CIO. Thank you Andrew, if only we had found
you earlier!”

We have just been granted charitable status and we are delighted! We could not have achieved this without the help and expertise of our charity expert, Andrew, who gave us such excellent advice throughout the process.

We made our first application, online, during lockdown but were unsuccessful. Then we employed solicitors who specialised in charity work. They helped us prepare and submit an application but advised us to withdraw it because they considered that unless we did, it was likely it would be rejected. Then, after receiving a recommendation, we contacted Andrew and after that, it was all plain sailing!”

Ken Penrose, Trustee of Halesworth to Southwold Narrow Gauge Railway CIO Registered Number 1202621.

If you want to take some of the stress and work away from applying to be a Charity use Andrew.

This was processed quickly and without any problems largely due to the expertise of The Charity Expert! Many thanks.”
The Breakfast Bothy, Edinburgh, Registered Charity Number in Scotland SC051923.
Andrew Butler at The Charity Expert is simply that. An Expert.
“Due to the possible complex nature of our situation (splitting a Charitable entity from a established Ltd Company) we ended up parking  the idea of a setting up a charity firmly into the draw marked ‘Too Complicated and Too expensive’ …..

However I’m so thankful that we found The Charity Expert.net and met Andrew.  He simply opened that draw, saw through to what we needed and walked us through the process of set up and registration…. which we achieved in what could be a record time!

Andrew was in constant contact throughout the process and ready to guide and explain any issues we didn’t understand no matter what we threw at him.

We had no hesitation to purchase his platinum service (at very reasonable cost) which includes set up and importantly for us, 15 months of support to the trustees and new charity.

Charity Expert becomes your in-house advisor and quite simply transforms the charity commission (and its daunting requirements) from a large bureaucratic entity into an easily manageable step by step process.

If you are reading this testimonial, then you have already found your answer in The Charity Expert.

Book them today for a chat and you’ll be fast forwarding your charity set up immediately.

100% recommended.”

One of my better decisions as he has a very personable and professional manner and he calmly and methodically went through the process with me. He clearly explained what information was needed and what was required of me as he filled in the forms on my behalf.  Within 3 months, I now have a registered charity approved by the commission – all thanks to Andrew. I thoroughly recommend him to anyone wanting to start a charity and would prefer a pain free experience by consulting with a professional.

The guidance and support from Andrew at Charity Expert has been brilliant.
Having submitted an application before to the Charity Commissioners myself and having it rejected, I was rather confused about how things should, or should not be phrased on the application.  The guidance and support from Andrew at Charity Expert has been brilliant, his knowledge was of great benefit and made the whole process less stressful.  I’m so glad we used them.

We cannot rate his support to too highly, and it’s a very cost effective solution as well!
For any small charitable enterprise who aspires to Registered Charity status, the first view of the application form can be onerous to say the least. Andrew and Charity Expert, helped us build the appropriate level of content into our initial application. There is no doubt Andrew knows the process inside out and provides the trustees with the confidence to complete the process. There are always questions from the commission after the first submission. In our case it took eight months for them to come back to us with a long list of additional requests for us to complete in two weeks!  However once again Andrew helped structure and organise our response, and bingo we were successful on the first attempt. We cannot rate his support to too highly, and it’s a very cost effective solution as well!

I found Andrew to be prompt and efficient in all correspondence whether by phone or email. Although it transpired we didn’t need as much input on the actual application as I’d first thought, it was reassuring to know that help was at hand when needed – it gave us peace of mind that someone with more insight was able to guide us through the process so well. Thank you very much Andrew.

Honestly there is no way I would recommend anyone should go through the charity application process without Andrew, he’s a must-have on your team.
Registering our charity was such an exciting prospect at the beginning but when we looked at the process we were totally overwhelmed and confused about how on earth we would go about it. Then we found Andrew, and thank goodness we did. Genuinely without him our charity would not exist. We were rejected twice and both times Andrew’s knowledge of the process and his positive attitude towards getting us over the line shone through. He is incredibly easy to communicate with and really lovely to chat to. Andrew, thank you so much. Without you, our charity would never have made it. You’ve made us, the trustees and all of the children you have helped us reach incredibly happy. If you’re reading this testimonial and wondering whether to work with Andrew – do it.

We wanted to set up a charity to address the humanitarian crisis caused by the pandemic in Nepal. Working with Andrew helped us get registered as a U.K. charity.  Andrew took time to inform and educate us about the process of registering and the legislations.
He was very patient, supportive and dedicated. We are very happy that we got the opportunity to work with Andrew and the Charity Expert. Highly recommend.

If you are looking to register a charity, do not look any further than charity expert.

The application process to register a charity can be difficult, and after an unsuccessful attempt of our own we were left wondering where to turn. Since we have been in contact with Andrew at Charity Expert, this whole process could not have been any simpler. Andrew is very much an expert, and his professionalism is second to none. We really feel as though we could not have done this without him, and with his advice and guidance, we were registered in a little over 48 hours. If you are looking to register a charity, do not look any further than Charity Expert.
Abigail Winn, Chair of trustees, WE STREET, Registered Charity No 1195461.

Mike Ockenden, on behalf of the trustees of The Garment and Textiles Trust, Registered Charity No 1195329.

We as an organisation would have no hesitation in recommending your services to any organisation that is looking to be recognised as an approved registered charity.

We found you very supportive and efficient in getting the application off the ground and this positive service continued throughout the journey until the application was successfully granted.  Had it not been for your guidance, I suspect that the process may have been prolonged as a result of additional queries being raised by the Charity Commission. Your input ensured that the necessary and relevant information was provided at the outset.

Emma Mitchell, Trustee of Kindergarten For Akuralal, Registered Charity No 1194950.

I would definitely recommend contacting Andrew at Charity Experts if you are interested in setting up a charity!

When I first contacted Andrew at Charity Experts, I had no idea about what was involved in setting up a charity, let alone where to start. He answered my (many) queries and gave me so much information about the process and what was involved. I really appreciated that the consultation was before payment as it made me feel comfortable that my decisions to set up the charity were not influenced or rushed by having to make big payments. Once the process was underway Andrew was so helpful and informative and he was always willing to make things as easy as possible by always being available to quickly respond to any queries. I would definitely recommend contacting Andrew at Charity Experts if you are interested in setting up a charity!

Bilal Ali, Trustee of Ali Foundation, Registered Charity No 1194882.

As soon as I contacted Andrew at Charity Expert it all became much easier.

Initially when we were trying to change our charity name and status we had a lot of difficulty understanding the rules and regulations from the Charity Commission, but as soon as I contacted Andrew at Charity Expert it all became much easier. He understood the process of setting up and registering and was able to take forward and develop our application successfully. Without his advice and assistance we might have abandoned our application. He was always willing and quick to answer questions and give useful advice.

Dr Thomas Batho, Trustee of Sussex Coast Talking News, Registered Charity No 1194816.

We would highly recommend Charity Expect, they surely do make every effort to guide, support and help you through the process and at a good cost!

Andre Best, Trustee of You Matter, Registered Charity No 1194554.
Should anyone ask me, I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to them. 
Without your help I don’t think we would have achieved registration of the charity. You have come up trumps for us and I am truly grateful.
With your knowledge of what the Charity Commission was asking you were able to complete the application form and answer all the questions far quicker and more efficiently than I could ever have.  I particularly appreciated the way you worked closely with me to ensure you understood exactly what we were trying to achieve and to align that with the questions in the application form.
Should anyone ask me, I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to them.
Thanks to you, we can now get on with the work of the Charity for the benefit of the kids in Kenya. Wonderful!!!

Brilliant service – a must for anyone looking to set up a charity.
 
I cannot recommend highly enough Andrew and Charity Expert for their valuable help in setting up Angels for Bulgaria as a charity! After first trying to register us with the Commission on our own and being rejected we were in despair how to find support until we come across Charity Expert from online search.  From the initial contact all the way through Andrew has been great, fully understanding of the goals and  objectives of our charity and always quick to respond. The best thing of all – we got our registration in record time! Without any additional questions or queries! The whole team is over the moon with the outcome as this gives us so much more credibility. Thank you,  Andrew! We could have not done this without you!

I can not recommend Andrew highly enough for anyone looking to set up a charity.
 
I had always planned to set up a charitable foundation in memory of a family member but had become pretty daunted by the complexity of the process. A good friend recommended Andrew Butler from the Charity Expert as the best person to help.  rom my first phone call Andrew was fantastic. He completely understood what I was trying to achieve and helped me understand everything along the way and made the process look simple. He was always available for the many questions I had and was a pleasure to work with.

Excellent service and would highly recommend 
 
Andrew is truly a charities expert.

We are very impressed and will recommend his service at any time.

Andrew of Charity Expert dealt with our Charity Commission application with great skills, giving appropriate guidance from time to time and made the submission very seamless. It was a little surprising when we got the approval in a record time; as we were aware of the amount of effort and experience, he had invested in the processing of the application. We are very impressed and will recommend his service at any time.

Dr Godson Lawal, Trustee of Jesus Revelation Ministries, Registered Charity Number 1193159.

Many thanks for all the wonderful help and your expertise. Applying for charitable status is a tricky process and I wouldn’t have been able to navigate it without your support and professionalism.

Dr Georgie Pope, Trustee of Global Music Academy, Registered Charity Number 1193423.

It goes without saying that we would recommend you to anyone else who needs to get their charity registered.

Thank you so much for getting us registered. It was an outstanding effort by you and a longwinded process. You had been very supportive and patient from the beginning and despite all the setbacks, you were always keen to either challenge the negative outcome of the case, whenever it was needed or resubmit the application based on comments provided by us which was greatly appreciated by all of us.
It is also important to mention that you continued your effort after advising us on the technical interpretation provided by the caseworker which was instrumental in getting a positive outcome, all that whilst you yourself also went through a tough time personally. This is to be highly respected and shows that you are a fantastic professional in your own right.
It goes without saying that we would recommend you to anyone else who needs to get their charity registered.

Mathavan, Ramesh, Sivaleelan and Luxmy, Trustees of Chithambara College Maths Challenge, Registered Charity Number 1193522.

We cannot thank you enough for your hard work through this very strange and difficult time and would wholeheartedly recommend Charity Expert to anyone with a dream of setting up a charity.

I entered lockdown last year with a view to doing something a bit different. That was to support some of the challenges we see families in our local community face with regards to access to opportunities such as activities and services. With all good intentions I had no understanding of how I was going to make this idea a reality. I knew I wanted to start a charity but was put off by the challenges in setting this up. I came across Andrew at Charity expert through searching online for support and from day one he has taken the utmost care and attention to understand what our goal was initially and embraced it to provide us with the vital tools to turn the idea into a reality. We cannot thank you enough for your hard work through this very strange and difficult time and would wholeheartedly recommend Charity Expert to anyone with a dream of setting up a charity.

Chris Eather, Trustee of The People’s Opportunity Trust, Registered Charity Number 1193076.

We have no qualms about recommending you to anyone else and would certainly use you again should we have the need.

I have NO hesitation in recommending Charity Expert and Andrew to anyone looking to be helped and guided in setting up a charity… don’t even consider not using Andrew’s expertise –
he’s a STAR!.

When I decided to set up the charity, to honour my late husband’s legacy, I didn’t
realise how daunting a task it would be and whilst I so wanted to do so, the seemingly
complicated process of applying put me off, until I found the Charity Expert website
and spoke to Andrew.

Andrew was re-assuring, full of great advice, calm efficiency and made the whole
application process painless, straightforward and efficient. He was so professional,
easy to communicate with, kept me informed and up to date and made the whole
process so seamless and from something that I was dreading embarking on, he made
it an exciting project to be embarking on.

The application was so easy and so much faster than I had hoped for. Andrew guided
me every step of the way and I am so grateful for all of his help. I have NO hesitation
in recommending Charity Expert and Andrew to anyone looking to be helped and
guided in setting up a charity… don’t even consider not using Andrew’s expertise-
he’s a STAR!

The procedure was smooth and Andrew was extremely personable.  The best decision we made! 

With many thanks to Andrew at Charity Expert.  We had tried to write the application ourselves, but the extra detailed information that was required had to be worded in the CC way.  We looked into many ways of getting assistance to get our Charity registered and in the end, we decided on Charity Expert.  What a perfect decision that was!  The procedure was smooth and Andrew was extremely personable.  The best decision we made!  Thank you.

Jules Norman, Trustee of Labrador UK Action Group, Registered Charity Number 1191538.

I cannot recommend Andrew at Charity Expert highly enough.

I cannot recommend Andrew at Charity Expert highly enough.  Having previously seen charity lawyers, I was told it would be unlikely that a corporate foundation application would be accepted, to which Andrew stepped in and proved them wrong.  I am sure many people, like me, set up charities that originate from a bereavement or other trauma and so this process can be equally daunting, emotional, frightening but also healing.  The service from start to finish has been professional, efficient and, very importantly, always with kindness. Thank you.

Sonia Barr, Trustee of The Barr Foundation, Registered Charity Number 1191799.

The level of service received was excellent and value for money. We highly recommend Andrew and Charity Experts to others.

Mushtaq Ahmed, Trustee of AAS Foundation UK, Registered Charity Number 1191571.

Andrew from Charity Expert was extremely helpful and professional.  You guys did an amazing job. I wish we went with your services from the very outset. We highly recommend your services.

I would like to firstly thank Charity Expert for the amazing work they did in registering our humble charity.
Although being slightly sceptical about departing with fee involved, we wasted a whole year thinking we could save that money and do it ourselves directly with Charities Commission. This proved to be a time wasting exercise as mistakes and errors were made which caused severe delay which led to us abandoning this application submitted.
After re-approaching Andrew at Charity Expert a year later to take this matter forward, it was done smoothly and with minimal effort. Charity Expert clearly know what they are doing. All relevant documentations, forms and policies were prepared and then the actual application submitted to Charities Commission swiftly.
I think our charity must hold the record time ever, as Charities Commission processed and approved our application within 48 hours, despite fearing there would be months and months of delay to process due to the COVID-19. Not only surprised, we were very shocked and shocked at the same time by this result.
So thank you Charity Expert. You guys did an amazing job. I wish we went with your services from the very outset. We highly recommend your services.
Ray Faruk, Trustee of SJR Foundation, Registered Charity Number 1191074.

Kieran Stanbridge, Trustee of Thin Blue Paw Foundation, Registered Charity Number 1190959.

What a great service!

After being declined for a charity number before we slightly anxious to pay for a service that would do this, after speaking to Andrew our minds were eased. The process was very simple and were spoken through the process from beginning to the end and kept in the loop! What a great service!

Claudia Myrie, Trustee of Time for Good International Ministries, Registered Charity Number 1190931.

Tomas Jansons, Trustee of Bright Smile Foundation, Registered Charity Number 1190804.

We would be happy to recommend Andrew and found him very helpful and approachable.

I came in contact with Andrew during the process to get the charity registration done for Sonpal Samaj UK.  It was indeed a lengthy and sometimes challenging process with few knock backs along the way. However, through it all Andrew has been extremely supportive, patient, positive and persevered in helping us get this done successfully.

I have found him to be very knowledgeable and reliable with a charming personality and it has been a pleasure to work with him.  I would highly recommend his services and wish him all the best.

Bijay B Gurung, Trustee of Sonpal Samaj UK, Registered Charity Number 1190562.

Andrew took this on seamlessly, keeping us informed all the way through and when we had to put the process on hold due to the Coronavirus and family issues, Andrew understood.

When our group began, we applied to be a charity but after our application was returned to us for various alterations on various occasions, we gave up and decided that we could still operate as a constituted group.

However due to our group growing in size and with receiving sizeable grants and donations we were advised that we needed to become a charity. With each committee member being full time unpaid carers, no one had the time or energy to start this process again.

But we found Charity Experts, and Andrew took this on seamlessly, keeping us informed all the way through and when we had to put the process on hold due to the Coronavirus and family issues, Andrew understood.

Now weeks later and so much earlier than expected we are now a Charitable Incorporated Organisation.

Thank you so much Andrew.

Jacqui Darlington, Founder and Trustee of Out of Hours Club Rutland, Registered Charity Number 1190545.

I am very pleased to give Andrew a 10/10, thank you and keep up the awesome job you do.

I just wanted to say a massive thank you and to complement you on your commitment to our project and the friendly professional way you made it seem so easy for us to become a registered charity.  If you are looking for someone to help you then I have no hesitation in recommending Charity Expert. Polite, professional, courteous, and knowledgeable with the patience of a saint.

I have only ever on a handful of occasions give out anything above 9 but there was nothing that was too much trouble or a problem with straight talking so I am very pleased to give Andrew a 10/10, thank you and keep up the awesome job you do.

John Joyce, Founder and Trustee of Veterans Support Association, Registered Charity Number 1190025.

Naseer Khan, Trustee of Sleaford Islamic Centre, Registered Charity Number 1190092.

Your service was impeccable and I would highly recommend you to anyone that is looking to set up charity.

I just wanted to say what a wonderful job you have done for us.  Your knowledge and advice was second to none and you have no doubt enabled us to get our charity registered when we had struggled. You were professional and always available to answer questions and queries. You explained what was happening and what would happen every step of the way and even though our first application had come back with numerous questions you talked through with us what the commission were looking for. We were able to have open discussions with you on our plans and the charity which you then translated into commission speak. Your service was impeccable and I would highly recommend you to anyone that is looking to set up charity. Thank you from all of us at HD Livin.

Andrew did a great job in the registration of  Campaign against Poverty. 

Andrew did a great job in the registration of  Campaign against Poverty.  Indeed, without his commitment, we would have given up along the way.  Our registration got into difficulty on the issue of conflict of interests of one of the trustees. Things became a bit protracted. A point came when we thought of giving up. Andrew’s perseverance eventually helped us over the winning line.

Mr Robert Peprah-Gyamfi, Trustee of Campaign Against Poverty – Registered Charity Number 1189950.

We are extremely fortunate to have found Andrew the Charity Expert.

We are extremely fortunate to have found Andrew the charity expert. He showed over several months that his experience was vital while navigating through our unique circumstances.

Richard Fisher, Trustee of PUSH UK – Registered Charity Number 1187750.

We will recommend any foundation/group we come into contact with if they plan on commencing a Charity Registration to contact Charity Expert to assist in the application.

After a few technicalities in trying to set up our Charity, we were referred to Andrew Butler via the DSG.org based in London.  From the start, Andrew’s attention to detail was apparent & he asked all the questions we were not asked with our previous ‘expert’.   Andrew ensured that he understood & was familiar with the often hard to put in writing ‘feel’ of the Charity & where/which direction it was planning to establish.  The Point Trust felt the ability to contact him at any given time with queries which arose, whilst navigating the requirements of the Commission & what we wanted to continue to achieve on a larger scale as a Community focused Charity.  We will recommend any foundation/group we come into contact with if they plan on commencing a Charity Registration to contact Charity Expert to assist in the application.

Jacqueline Graham, Trustee of The Points Trust – Registered Charity Number 1189755.

My advice is simply Don’t do it yourself. The Charity Expert IS an expert, was happy to spend time on the phone and got the job done with minimal input from myself!

I initially applied to the Charity Commission ‘off my own bat’, which was my first mistake. The process was extremely difficult and long winded, I found the website advice difficult to digest and when I had filed my application, there was no mechanism to speak with the person handling our application. Consequently, I found written requests for clarification from the commission confusing and frustrating. My advice is simply Don’t do it yourself. The Charity Expert IS an expert, was happy to spend time on the phone and got the job done with minimal input from myself!

Mark Brindley, Trustee of James Brindley Foundation – Registered Charity Number 1189619.

I would recommend Charity Experts to anyone wanting to apply to the Charity Commission for an informative and very smooth process!

I have wanted to set up a charity for many years, where we would engage with hard to reach young people living in London. The aim of our charity ‘Kick Start’ is to use sport to engage with and develop children and young people onto the next step of life. Charity Expert and Andrew Butler offered a clear and comprehensive service, supporting us to create a constitution and complete our application to the Charity Commission. I was really impressed by the level of service, the various options available to us regarding registering and how we may be able to branch out in terms of trustees and directorship roles. I have worked in the charity sector for 15 years but was really unaware of the process needed to become a registered charity. I would recommend Charity Experts to anyone wanting to apply to the charity commission for an informative and very smooth process!

Chris Webb-Butler, Trustee of Kick Start Charity   – Registered Charity Number 1187724.

I would definitely recommend his services to charities who are struggling with the process!

After a very hard time with the Charities Commission regarding the exact wording and meaning of our objects and activities, Andrew managed to swiftly retailer our documents and successfully register our charity in a very short time span. Without his help and advice, I am sure we would would still be going through the process now! I would definitely recommend his services to charities who are struggling with the process!

David Ainsworth, Trustee of My Discombobulated Brain  – Registered Charity Number 1189039.

I would fully recommend this service to anyone in the process of establishing their own charity.

The charity expert is a fantastic service and it was instrumental in setting up our charity. Andrew made the whole process straightforward and was very understanding of our charity needs.  I would fully recommend this service to anyone in the process of establishing their own charity.

Clare Latchem, Trustee of Parental Alienation   – Registered Charity Number 1187738.

I would strongly recommend Andrew.

I wished to set up a charity to which I or my business would donate money and then use those funds for a number of charity projects.  After doing a google search I made contact with a couple of law firms who specialised in charity setup.  One quoted £3000 the other £6000.  I was reluctant spend that kind of money, so looked at doing the registration myself.  I soon realised that there were a number unknowns so did further googling and happened to fall on Andrew’s website.  The initial Skype conference call advised me on best charity type and a template questionnaire.  Also advice on how to phase some answers.  Then two more conference calls always with excellent and really friendly advice.  Charity was setup about 8 weeks after initial meeting.  I would strongly recommend Andrew.

Richard van der Knaap, Trustee of VDK Family Charity  – Registered Charity Number 1189096.

Your expert knowledge and advice were apt and invaluable.

The Board of Trustees of Karismata Children Trust would like to express our profound gratitude to Charity Expert for your professionalism, dedication and excellent communication throughout the process of setting up and registering our charity.

Quentin Clare, Trustee of  The Brigantes Orchestra – Registered Charity Number  1187752.

If you want a charity registered and with expert advice/support – Andrew Butler and Charity Experts what you need.

I honestly have nothing for great words for Andrew. He has been methodical throughout; from beginning to end. The process was very difficult and it took over one year. Registering a charity is not for the faint hearted and if it wasn’t for Andrew, it may have taken longer. However, he was calm, patient and even provided telephone calls to discuss the application process or tweaks.

Caroline Odong , Trustee of Go Bare – Registered Charity Number 1187816.

I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to anyone looking to form a charitable trust.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the help you provided in our application for charitable status.  Our submission to the charity commission had become frustrating in as much as we were failing to understand exactly what the commission needed to know for our application to be agreed and several e mails had been exchanged without moving forwards over a period of some months. Within a month of asking you to take over the submission process our application was successful and The Friends of the Old Boxted Schoolroom is now a CIO and able to pursue its aim of providing a home for Boxted Methodist Silver Band and other organisations in our area.

I wish you continued success with the other applications you are involved with and will let you know of future developments.  I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to anyone looking to form a charitable trust.

Kevin Blundell, Trustee of Old Boxted Schoolroom – Registered Charity Number 1187679.

I would highly recommend you to others…efficient, easy to talk to, a fast worker.

A huge thank you.  I would not have been able to do this without your help. Certainly, meeting on a one-one basis made things a lot clearer for you and easier for me.  I found the writing of main points and then allowing you to put it in to specific terminology [which you are an expert at!] saved a lot of time with emails going back and forth until I had the specifics correct.  The whole procedure which, for me was daunting turned out to be much easier than I had expected, but one which I would not have embarked on if I had not had your help.
I would highly recommend you to others…efficient, easy to talk to, a fast worker.  I was thrilled that the charity status came through just before the 1st event on January 11th…The HNT Charity Concert.
Rachel Goodfellow, Trustee and Founder of Hidden Needs Trust – Registered Charity Number 1187246.

I can’t recommend “the Charity Expert” enough, very knowledgeable, very helpful, but, above all, he does what it says on the tin.

Wow, at last, after months of spending hours of form filling with no success and rejected by the Charity Commission, I was about to give up on everything, but I searched the web and found “The Charity Expert” left a message with him, Andrew called me back, the result, we are finally registered. I can’t recommend “the Charity Expert” Enough, very knowledgeable, very helpful, but, above all, he does what it says on the tin. Thank you Andrew for all you hard work from all of us.
Dave Smith, Trustee of Gosport Waterfront Community Festival – Registered Charity Number 1186828.

I found Charity Expert to be just that – experts.

I found Charity Expert to be just that – experts. It can be quite daunting when thinking and planning to set-up a charity that’s most important aspect is to help others. Instead of getting it wrong, incorrectly completing the forms I chose Charity Expert after a telephone conversation with Andrew.
His experience in understanding what is needed to register a charity allowed myself and the trustees of Thanks Ethan! (Ethan’s Angels) to concentrate on the direction of the charity. Sadly there are too many rough sleepers and homeless on the streets of Greater Manchester, but now that the charity is officially registered by the Charities Commission we can move forward and raise funds to work to eradicate homeless in the area, and eventually further afield
Thanks Andrew for a positive experience in enabling the registration of the charity which is very dear to our hearts, doing good in memory of our great friend, Ethan.

Pete Walkling, Trustee of Johnny Nelson Foundation – Registered Charity number 1185129.

Absolutely delighted with the service.

We would highly recommend Andrew and Charity Expert.  Without their help, patience and guidance we would have still been trying to sort though the myriad of requirements by the Charity Commission.  Andrew helped us make sense of the Objects, and translated our vision into wording that met the application format.  Absolutely delighted with the service.
David Linell, Representative of Johnny Nelson Foundation – Registered Charity number 1184853.

Charity Expert as the name suggests are experts in understanding your organisation objects and translating them accordingly.

We have been very impressed with the service that Andrew at Charity Expert has provided us with as a project.  His customer service and communication is excellent and he is very approachable.   He took the time to explain what levels of support his company can offer, which was done without any pressure to purchase his service, and also explained the Charity Commission application process to us in detail.  Once we decided to use his company, he then did a great deal of information gathering to ensure that our application had as much detail in it as possible in the hope that we didn’t face any delays with the application.  There were no issues at all with our application and the whole process was completed in a very timely manner.  We would highly recommend Charity Expert to anyone looking to register with the Charity Commission.

I would highly recommend this service to anyone else looking to set up a charity simply and easily.

Charity Expert were extremely helpful in responding to questions I had about registered charities, the charity set up process and completion of forms. Without the help of Charity Expert I expect I would still be stuck in the administrative stage of setting up the charity rather than moving on to running it! I would highly recommend this service to anyone else looking to set up a charity simply and easily.

Alia Azmi, Trustee of Sengalor Students in Need – Registered Charity Number 1184082.

We cannot speak highly enough of Charity Expert and the service we received.

We have been delighted with the service received from Andrew Butler at Charity Expert. Having never set up a charity before, and being completely clueless on where to begin, Andrew was patient with our hundreds of questions and explained every step of the way. Andrew did all of the hard work for us and our charity was registered within a week of application – incredible! We cannot speak highly enough of Charity Expert and the service we received.

Emma Fox, Acorn Book Club – Registered Charity Number 1184137.

Call the experts, call Charity Expert.

Geek.Zone had previously made two attempts to register for Charitable Incorporated Organisation status, however since none of the Trustees were able to properly articulate what Geek.Zone does, the Charity Commission kept returning the application. Charity Expert was able to translate our lay language into more appropriate formal wording, which lead to Geek.Zone successfully being granted registered charity status as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 2019-02-19. This, in turn, has clearly helped us to progress on many fronts. Could we have spent many, many years learning how to “speak Charity Commission”? Perhaps. Would that delay have harmed Geek.Zone? Absolutely. If you have a burst pipe, you would not try to learn plumbing, because all the while you are Googling your house would be drowning, so you would call a plumber! Equally, if your organisation has got to a stage where a lack of incorporation is holding you back, as we had, do not wait around to drown, call the experts, call Charity Expert.

James Geddes, Trustee of Geek.Zone – Registered Charity Number 1182126.

I would not hesitate in recommending Andrew to provide his expertise in obtaining Charity Status for an organisation that fits the criteria.

I highly recommend Andrew and Charity Expert to take the anxiety out of registration and support your organisation through the process.

The guidance and assistance we received from Andrew meant our charity was registered in record time (2 days). This meant the charity was in a position to be chosen as the mayor’s charity for the year. His insight into the process and advice on trustees, governing documents and charity structure including safeguarding was invaluable. When we submitted our application to the Charity Commission we expected a long wait and questions but because of the preparation work we received our registration within 2 days (record time) I highly recommend Andrew and Charity Expert to take the anxiety out of registration and support your organisation through the process. We have decided to upgrade from Golf to Platinum based on the service received from Charity Expert.

Band of Builders submitted and application to the Charity Commission back in May 2016. We had several rounds of correspondence and although our trustees had various and diverse backgrounds, it became clear that professional help was needed. From initially making contact with Andrew at Charity Expert, we all knew his help would prove invaluable. Andrew has guided us through the complicated route we chose and made everything simple and understandable. Our application with Andrew’s guidance was simple and streamlined. Since involving Andrew our application contained all of the right information from the outset, presented in a manner the Charity Commission expect.

We have been so impressed and are very grateful for the assistance of the Charity Expert. 

We have been so impressed and are very grateful for the assistance of the charity expert helping us to go through the rather lengthy process of transferring our Community Interest Company Little Hands Design into a charity.
We had first approached a couple of law practices for the same service and were shocked at the fees suggested to us.  It seemed to be a contradiction in terms for a lawyer to earn in the region of £10k to allow us to intensify our non-profit charitable work!  In stark contrast, the Charity Expert seemed to not only very competitive in their pricing but also completely on our side from the start.
Andrew took time to understand and advise on comments from the Charity Commission to help us modify our application.  We have already and will continue to recommend him for his professional, patient approach which led to us now finally being registered as a charity.

Anyone in my situation should contact Andrew on charity experts. They are really
professionals and experts. 

I was really lucky to meet Andrew from Charity Expert on line. We were asked so many papers to provide and explain so many things and at the end were refused registration.  We contacted Andrew, who promised us to provide all necessary help to get us the registered. In fact, I was losing hope and was feeling frustrated. I thought to give it a go with the help of Andrew.  I provided all the documents and explanations to Andrew. One day I received an email. I was not very hopeful but guess what. With the help of Andrew and his team we were a registered charity. Anyone in my situation should contact Andrew on charity experts. They are really professionals and experts.

I simply cannot recommend Andrew and Charity Expert’s services highly enough…..a first class, professional 5 star service from beginning to end. 

During a difficult time for us following the death of our son, the one subject that somehow managed to give us all something to focus on and be positive about was setting up a charity in his name. However, when researching online and talking to others who had been involved in registering charities, it all seemed more and more of a process surrounded by red tape and an administrative headache to a complete novice.
Having spoken to a number of companies who I felt were more interested in the fees than the advice, I finally reached out to Andrew at Charity Expert who I found equally empathetic and professional from the very first call.
Andrew was more than happy to listen as I tried to explain what we were hoping to achieve, he explained the various options available and differences between them, was incredibly patient answering my repeated queries and was just incredibly easy to deal with throughout the whole process.
But most important to me was that I felt he genuinely wanted to help me as he could sense how important the charity was to us, and at no time did it feel like business …just one friend helping another.
Our son’s charity is now registered (in an incredibly quick timescale) and we are all incredibly proud about what we have achieved and are going to achieve in the future in Jack’s name.
I simply cannot recommend Andrew and Charity Expert’s services highly enough…..a first class , professional 5 star service from beginning to end.

I can recommend this organisation and Andrew Butler in particular as a friendly and effective service that is very well worth the cost.

As Project Manager of the Haven Project CIC, a small project supporting people with the diagnosis of Personality Disorder, I had long been wanting to convert the organisation to charity status in order to be able to access funding for the project.

I had attempted to initiate the conversion via the Charity Commission’s online service. But I found myself overwhelmed by the complexity of the site and the difficulties in navigating the on-line application. When the application “timed out“ on me I decided that this was work for experts and searched for a suitable company to undertake the task. I was very fortunate in finding the Charity Expert and Andrew Butler.

He was approachable and knowledgeable (as he had worked for the commission and so knew the ins and outs of their systems and methods).  He did all the work he could for us and where we had to become involved he made the tasks as clear and easy as possible to complete.

I cannot thank him enough for the time and frustration he has saved me and at a very reasonable cost. We have already saved over £3,000 in business rates on account of having completed the charity conversion. We have hundreds of additional grants to access and are looking forward to applying for to cover costs for future projects.

I can recommend this organisation and Andrew Butler in particular as a friendly and effective service that is very well worth the cost. In our case is has already paid or itself more than fourtimes over.

Pernille Peterson, Project Manager – The Haven Project – Registered Charity Number 1169747

Andrew of Charity Expert was not the first Charity Consultant we approached in our search for help with our Charity registration application but he was the first one we felt who deeply listened to our case and who assured us he would do his best to secure success.  His previous experience in working for the Charity Commission shone through when he guided us through the process and raised our awareness of the most important point to make and hurdles to overcome.

We knew our application was not straight forward yet we detected no reticence on his part to do anything other than give his best.  Indeed though he knew little of who we were or what we did at the start, by the time it came to submission Andrew was a supporter of our case in seeking to be one of the key providers of support for men facing challenges in leveraging mental health and wellbeing through our support groups, trainings, community and culture of mentorship.

When the Charity Commission sought further clarity Andrew provided us clear guidance and encouragement. He made himself available to talk with members of our team when questions arose. I have no doubt that Andrew’s previous Charity Commission experience, his calm and client centred approach made sure we submitted the best case possible which secured success.  His fee structure was incredibly fair and good value for money, we will keep Andrew on as our Charity Expert. I would highly recommend Andrew to organisations needing help.

Charlotta Martinus, Teen Yoga Foundation – Reg Charity No: 1165236

We strongly recommend anyone who wishes to set a charity properly and to have it registered, to use Charity Expert’s services and expertise for their efficiency, precision and kindness.

My husband and me are French and we had been living here for less than 2 years when we decided to set our charity “EMUNA CHARITY” last year and I have to say we certainly couldn’t have it set without the help of Charity Expert, who besides were very patient with me and my difficulties to understand English on the phone 🙂  They were available each time we needed them and provided good information, even helping us writing in proper English about the aims of the charity.  Andrew took care of the application to the Charity Commission and within a month or two Emuna Charity became a registered Charity… such a precious help for us and such a relief  not to have to get involved into these administrative procedures… we already have so much work with the charity !!! It was like having a friend on our side helping and understanding us in our project. Today the charity is running well and has lots of projects, some books have been written and a website is under construction to sell these books at an affordable price… we are very happy of the journey we made in one year, and this is only the beginning… and all this could start thanks to God, of course, and thanks to Charity Expert !
In conclusion we strongly recommend anyone who wishes to set a charity properly and to have it registered, to use Charity Expert’s services and expertise for their efficiency, precision and kindness.

Stephanie Guieu, Emuna Charity – Reg Charity No: 1163937

I cannot recommend Charity Expert highly enough.

We approached Charity expert after having difficulties completing the registration process for our charity Spotlight YOPD. After explaining the issues that we were coming up against to Andy, he immediately explained what he thought the problems were, and how he thought they could be overcome. Over the next few months we spent a lot of time talking together over the phone, discussing the best way to move forward and how to deal with the many obstacles that cropped up during the registration process. Andy was always happy to take the time to explain, in layman’s terms, what was being required of us, and how best to provide the information that the Charities Commission needed.
Andy is friendly, approachable, dedicated, and extremely experienced. Without his considerable help, I very much doubt that we would ever have succeeded in becoming a registered charity and therefore provide help to those living with Young Onset Parkinson’s disease. I cannot recommend Charity Expert highly enough, and I hope that we will continue to stay in touch.

Billy Flynn, SPOTLIGHT YOPD – Reg Charity No: 1165177

We found the service provided by Charity expert to be of good standard.

I would definitely recommend using Charity Expert to anyone setting up a charity.

As an existing Community Amateur Sports Club wishing to change our status to that of a Registered Charity, ours was not a straightforward case. Having reached a major obstacle in the somewhat daunting on-line application process, a decision was made by the Committee to seek professional advice and assistance. Our enquiries and subsequent recommendations led us to Andrew Butler of The Charity
Expert, which proved particularly fortuitous. His friendly, helpful approach and simple form work enabled our application to be processed and submitted very quickly, and with no additional information requested, our Club was delighted to receive approval from the Charity Commission within six weeks. Clearly, Andrew’s many years of working previously for the Commission has provided him with invaluable knowledge and the specialist expertise necessary to tailor and guide each application over the various hurdles.

You have exceeded my expectations by far.  I expected Charity Expert to be good but not this good.  You’re awesome!  I thought it would be many weeks before I get the number but thanks to Charity Expert I can now start real work of the organisation with more confidence.We contacted Charity Expert to support the seemingly impossible task of setting up our Charity “Precious Cells Miracle”, a charity which will help put the UK in a strong position to make stem cells available for the hundreds and thousands of families who have a loved one diagnosed with cancers such as Leukemia and other devastating illnesses which require a stem cell transplant as part of their treatment plan. Andrew Butler was nothing short of fantastic in supporting us prepare our application and even better in supporting us answer questions with the charity commissions regulators to ensure we supplied the relevant paperwork and information. I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew and his team for anyone embarking on the daunting journey of establishing a new charity.

We cannot thank Andrew enough for all his support, advice and help setting up our charity. There were times when we felt daunted and overwhelmed but Andrew was always there to encourage us.

We will always be grateful for Andrew’s professional expertise and knowledge. We thoroughly recommend The Charity Expert for anybody wanting to register a charity and for making it a success.

This is to thank you for all your support through out the process of the Charity registration.  After being mis-advised and subsequently let down regarding registering our Charity, we discovered Charity Expert; and, thank God we happened to speak with you at first.
You took our registration and supported us all the way. A special thanks for your last minute advise on approaching Barclays for Account Opening, and all the other supports that you gave us all the way.  You always reply our emails immediately and always return our call immediately, even when you miss us. You are superb and a star. Thank you so much.

Doris Adoghe – Trustee of Word of Life Bible Church –  Reg No. 1159997

Andrew has been patient and supportive throughout, and we have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone else in the same situation.

We applied for charity registration in September 2014, and although we passed the threshold hurdle, a number of issues still needed to be addressed. We probably could have dealt with some of them, but we do not have any expertise on this application process, and it would no doubt have been a bit hit and miss! We contacted Andrew Butler at Charity Expert, and he took the time to listen to what we had done, and what was still outstanding. He recommended building on what we had done (and priced it accordingly!). He produced a response to the Charity Commission which addressed all their issues. He followed up with the Commission, and in the 2nd week of January, we received the positive result of being registered. This whole process has, from our point of view, has been completely painless and hassle free. Andrew has been patient and supportive throughout, and we have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone else in the same situation.

Bob Tait – Trustee of Animal Canopy –  Reg No. 1159870

Making the decision to use the services of Andrew and Charity Expert was a complete success for me.

After one telephone call to Andrew to discuss my application two things became very apparent.  Firstly, it was evident that there were considerations and obstacles for my application that I had not been aware of, which could make or break its success.  Andrew quickly communicated these obstacles and explained where more thought was needed to meet the criteria needed.

Secondly, I was immediately aware that Andrew was very knowledgeable and approachable on this subject and once appointed would be a valuable resource and my first point of contact throughout the application process.

Making the decision to use the services of Andrew and Charity Expert was a complete success for me, our application was granted with very little hassle and well inside the time frame that Andrew had given.   I would thoroughly recommend Andrew and his services to anybody who is considering using him in the future.

Matthew Arnold – Trustee of Magic Buttons –  Reg No. 1159448

Charity Expert is an efficient, very informative company.

Andrew Butler did a very good job for us in gaining charitable status relatively quickly despite some tricky issues to navigate as we had an existing operation over many years focused on Burma. He was able to provide practical timely advice on current priorities within the Charity Commission so that we could together respond to their queries, with ultimate success.  Andrew Butler did a very good job for us in gaining charitable status relatively quickly despite some tricky issues to navigate as we had an existing operation over many years focused on Burma.

Andrew was fantastic at managing the charity registration process, his advice was invaluable and we are a much stronger organisation as a result of his advice. I feel Andrew went above and beyond in providing a service to Learning Through Horses, he was always happy to offer advice over the phone and gave a lot of additional consultancy which I didn’t expect.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Charity Expert and Andrew will be the first point of call if the charity needs some operational advice in future.

Finding the Charity Expert was a breath of fresh air.  I would recommend him without reservation.

Having tried to set up my charity through my own solicitor and then my own accountant and got nowhere, finding the Charity Expert was a breath of fresh air. Andrew Butler is knowledgeable yet keeps it simple and this allows him to charge very reasonably. He is pretty much always available on the phone and has seemingly endless patience when problems arise. I would recommend him without reservation.
 

Geoff Cox  – The Cox-Skuse Family Trust – Reg No. 1159801

The importance of being able to place yourself in expert hands when you are dealing with jargon you don’t immediately understand is not to be underestimated.

The moment I found Andrew I could breathe a sigh of relief. All matters I had previously been anxiously researching online were explained clearly and calmly by him in the first few minutes of our call. Now I could proceed with advice and guidance at all points. The importance of being able to place yourself in expert hands when you are dealing with jargon you don’t immediately understand is not to be underestimated.
Plus Andrew has a warm and playful telephone manner so I never felt I was asking stupid questions. Thanks Andrew you said you would be there for us until we got our charity number and your were!

Andrew’s patience and experience were definitely worth the £500 it cost from beginning to end.

I had wanted to set up a charity but didn’t know where to start. After perusing the mountains of information on the Charity Commission website, it appeared to be a daunting task until I came across a website called The Charity Expert and suddenly everything became simple and fitted into place. Andrew Butler, who himself worked for the Charity Commission, was able to ask the right questions and help structure our application so that it was clear, simple and accurate with the result that our application was processed with little fuss and in good time. Andrew’s patience and experience were definitely worth the £500 it cost from beginning to end

Without a charity expert, registering a charity can be a very expensive and complicated business.

Without a charity expert, registering a charity can be a very expensive and complicated business. Although our solicitors were very helpful, the process would have taken much longer and been much more expensive with them.  Therefore, we changed over to Andrew Butler who is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of charity registration, both before and after.  Any questions we had were answered promptly and  were made easy to understand.  Andrew is very easy to talk to both on the phone and online.

His fees are very reasonable and we feel he is worth every penny.  We will be keeping in touch with Charity Expert for future advice, which we know we will need.

Thank you, Andrew.  We have been very pleased with everything you have done for us in getting our charity registered.

Sheila Turner, Trustee – Joanna Wildlife Hospital – Reg No. 1158047

I have no reservations about recommending Andrew and hope to work with you again in the future

I would just like to say a massive thank you to Andrew at Charity Expert on behalf of the Winter Sports Foundation for helping us obtain our charity number. We had tried to do everything ourself and we were not getting very far and getting very confused about what needs to be done. It was becoming a real distraction as we didn’t know what to do and was taking up a lot of time. After speaking with a few organisations who help set up charities, i instantly knew i would go with Andrew as his phone manner and knowledge won me over straight away. He makes things as simple as possible for you and flew our application through. I have no reservations about recommending Andrew and hope to work with you again in the future.

Adam Carnall – Winter Sports Foundation

We can’t thank Charity Expert enough for making this dream a reality!

The enormity of setting up a charity off our own back was completely overwhelming, but with the help of Andy Butler at Charity Expert I can safely say that nothing has been easier. Andy was fantastic – always there at the end of the phone to answer any questions, providing us with all the right information, and even taking the time out to arrange a face to face meeting to put our minds at ease. Andy kept us up to date with the registration process every step of the way, and made sure that we were always involved and knew exactly what was happening. We can’t thank Charity Expert enough for making this dream a reality!

MRKH Connect (Registered Charity Number 1157477)

All I can say is if you need help, he is without a doubt you man

I had been trying to register my charity for over a year and kept hitting brick walls…. I searched the website for hours on end, had tons of conversations and meetings and would ask and write to everyone and anyone who might be able to shed some light on what was beginning to seem like an impossible task. Then I finally got directed to Andrew… He was BRILLIANT in every way… He was happy to provide tons of information over the telephone and email and applied no pressure to go with him and in fact tried to persuade me to go for a lower package… All I can say is if you need help, he is without a doubt you man!!!! OUTSTANDING… Thank you Andrew.

Kathryn Camsey – Alice Adams Foundation (Registered Charity Number 1157476)

I have no hesitation in recommending Charity Expert

I was very impressed with the service provided by Andrew Butler. My decision to use Charity Expert was in some part influenced by some of the testimonials, which I read on the Charity Expert web site.

I had a very in-depth conversation at the outset with Andrew and this really helped me set my expectations. Andrew was very generous with his time and advice.

At every stage of the charity registration process I had a very good level of confidence in the guidance provided by Andrew and I have no hesitation in recommending Charity Expert. Andrew Butler was prompt and reliable in terms of responding to my queries and I would definitely use Charity Expert again in the future.

Charity Expert has taken through the entire process in a stress free, timely way and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Clown Without Borders UK (Registered Charity Number 1156987)

I will definitely recommend your service to anyone

I found your service to be exactly as advertised on your website, we have not paid any more than what is advertised for the package we chose, I will definitely recommend your service to anyone, very hassle free & genuine, I particularly draw attention to your in-depth knowledge of charity law, as we had what could have turned out to be a “bit of a pickle” , but thanks to your very broad understanding and technical savvy, this pickle turned out to instead “Bear Sweet Fruit” with a charity number.

Shaz Khan –  Forum of Algerians in Britain (Registered Charity Number 1156327)

I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone else out there looking to launch their own charity

Having used Andrew Butler at Charity Expert for the legal registration process, I was impressed by the professionalism and urgency with which the case was handled. The Butterfly Project had a strict schedule to adhere to, and I had to press Andrew at times to get things moving ahead of schedule; however, Andrew was more than happy to chase things up with the UK charity commission and help expedite the setup process. Something we would have struggled with if Andrew and Charity Expert were not involved in the process.

From the drafting of the trust deed, to the specific details along the way, Andrew was meticulous in the handling of each stage of the setup.

I will be keeping in touch with Andrew, and would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone else out there looking to launch their own charity…big or small; Charity Expert will be able to assist.

Rajeev Kumar – The Butterfly Project (Registered Charity Number 1155962)

I wouldn’t hesitate to use them in the future or recommend them to other people

In my dealings with Charity Expert, we found them to be helpful, knowledgeable, friendly & professional, we just explained what we wanted to do with our proposed charity and they took care of the rest, I was unaware of Charity Expert beforehand, but having done our due diligence and spoke to some of their previous clients, I had peace of mind to use them and wouldn’t hesitate to use them in the future or recommend them to other people, certainly took the headache out of getting us registered – Thank you Andrew!!

Mark Camden-Clarke – JMHA North West (Registered Charity Number 1155283)

Shaun Foggett – The Crocodiles of the World Foundation (Registered Charity Number 1153303)

They were a support throughout and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

When I initially came to Andrew for help with the application process for my charity – I was half way through and I decided I wanted to change its name, so it was not particularly straightforward. Charity Expert made it very simple of me, and broke down the process in to manageable steps, which made it much less daunting. Andrew was always patient when I called him, with what I am sure must have been very tedious questions! They were a support throughout and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

We decided to use an expert and came across Charity Expert through Google. They took over the process for us and relieved us of all the technicalities. Andrew was alway very helpful and eventual we were registered with the charities commission. We can highly recommend this company.
