Q1a. Charity contact details
OSCR must keep a register of charities known as the “Scottish Charity Register” (“the
Register”). Under the 2005 Act the Register must contain a separate entry for each
charity entered in it which contains the principal office of the charity, or where it does
not have such an office, the name and address of one of its charity trustees.
The principal office address can be your charity’s address, the address of a third party
acting on your behalf, or any other address you choose. However, it must be an
address at which you will be able to deal with all the official letters and notices you
receive from OSCR.
Where the charity does not have a principal office, then you should provide us with the
name and address of an individual who is a charity trustee.
OSCR will direct its communication to the principal office of the charity or the specified
charity trustee. Information received from OSCR should be shared with all the charity
trustees, as they are jointly responsible for managing the charity.
You must let us know if there are any changes to the details you have provided in this
section to make sure that the charity will continue to receive important information from
us, and that the information entered in the charity’s entry in the Register is up to date.
You can update these changes using OSCR online.
