Glossary

not-for-profit
A not-for-profit organisation is a legal entity that does not operate for the profit, personal gain or other benefit of particular people. Organisations may generate income but reinvest it to continue the work of the organisation. Evidence of this would include:
• Annual accounts showing any profit being re-invested and spent to further the objectives of the organisation.
• The governing document stating any profit would not be distributed but would be used to further the objectives of the organisation.
for-profit
Companies aimed at generating profit primarily for private distribution such as companies that can pay profits to directors, shareholders, parent companies or members (including Companies Limited by Shares)).
unrelated
People who are not:
• Related by marriage.
• In a civil partnership with each other.
• In a long-term relationship with each other.
• Related through a long-term partner.
• Living together at the same address.
• Related by blood.
governing document
A set of rules by which your organisation is run. It may be in the form of a constitution, articles of association or deed to name a few examples. A governing document should set out your powers to receive and spend funds, whether your trustees or board receive renumeration, how decisions are made and what will happen to any monies upon dissolution of the organisation. If you are registered with Companies House your governing document should be available on your organisations registered page. If you are registered with the Charity Commission, you should provide Taith with your official governing document. All governing documents should be signed and dated by the directors/trustees.
dissolution clause
A statement within a governing document that sets out what will happen if the organisation is wound up and closed. A dissolution clause should state what will happen to the assets of the organisation. This should be to transfer them to another charity or not-for-profit organisation with a similar purpose. It should not state that assets will go to individuals for their own benefit.
