Our press office provides a range of services to journalists and deals with all areas of the Charity Commission's media work.

Please note that general enquiries from trustees, charities or members of the public cannot be dealt with by the Press Office - please see our contacting us pages.

How to contact the Press Office

We're open from 08:30 to 18:00 Monday to Friday, except national holidays.

The Media Information Centre on our website provides information for journalists about how the Charity Commission works, particularly in relation to issues that regularly attract press interest. You can also find out how to access facts and figures about charities and how to search for information about a particular charity, including its financial history.

How to arrange an interview with someone from the Charity Commission

Any interview requests can be scheduled through the press office. In general, however, we are unable to give interviews on specific cases and are unable to provide detail on ongoing investigative work.

We are willing to discuss opportunities for writing articles on particular topics.

Regulation of charities elsewhere in the United Kingdom

We only regulate charities in England and Wales. Charities in other parts of the UK are regulated by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) and the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland (established in 2010).
