Key Charity Details
Summary
This information will already be filled in using the information we hold about your charity.
Click on the expanding sections below for more information on the headings.
You will see that on this page the charity number will already be filled in. Each Scottish charity has a six-digit reference number with the prefix SC followed by a zero and then five digits (SC0xxxxx). This number is shown on the Scottish Charity Register.
The legal name of your charity is shown on the Scottish Charity Register. You must seek OSCR’s consent if you want to change your charity’s name – guidance about this can be found on our website at http://www.oscr.org.uk/charities/managing-yourcharity/making-changes-to-your-charity
If your charity changes it name and we give our consent, the ‘Legal Name’ will be updated and a field will appear titled ‘Former Legal Name’ with the former name.
