Charity Set Up is a free tool which was launched by the Small Charities Coalition developed in partnership with the Centre for Acceleration of Social Technology: CAST and Super Being Labs. Following the closure of SCC, the FSI and NCVO formed a partnership to ensure continued support for small charities. As part of this, we will continue to ensure this tool is free and available to anyone that needs it.
