Scottish Incorporated Charitable Organisation (SCIO) status

  • On 31 July 2020, the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) advised that our application for SCIO status had been successful.

    Inverkeithing Trust was set up for the benefit of the community of Inverkeithing. Being a charity makes it clear to everyone that our Trust is a non-profit organisation and, importantly, it is eligible to seek funding opportunities that will support our charitable aims.

Key SCIO benefits include:
 
  • Limited liability
    • the members of a SCIO are not liable to contribute to the SCIO’s debts in the event of winding up

  • Legal entity
    • a SCIO is a legal person, which means that Inverkeithing Trust can enter into contracts etc in its own name resulting in less individual risk to our board of Trustees

  • Lighter regulation
    • SCIOs are regulated by OSCR and the regulations imposed are light-touch, meaning reduced reporting obligations and administration.
 
For more information about being a SCIO, please follow link below to guidance on OSCR website:

The Inverkeithing Trust is a new charity run by volunteers that aims to help build a strong, vibrant community in our town.
We plan to engage with townsfolk on projects as well as "join the dots" to let you know what’s happening in the community.
