Legal status

Who we are, legally

Sujanagar Association UK is currently operated by Sujanagar Assoc UK CIC, a community interest company registered in England and Wales (company number XXXXXXXX).

We are converting to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and applying to register with the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Our new constitution sets out our charitable aims, how trustees are elected, and the rules on how our money is managed.
