Charity Commission inquiry

The inquiry was opened to investigate how 12 additional charities transferred funds and whether trustees exercised proper oversight after an HMRC visit revealed £22 million in cheque cashing across 105 charities. The report states that the Commission has not reached any conclusions and the opening of the inquiry is not a finding of wrongdoing.

“Following an unannounced visit by HMRC to a company in Hackney, 105 charities were found to have cashed cheques with it to a value of £22 million between December 2021 and March 2023.”

“The regulator will determine the facts around how these charities have transferred funds. It will also investigate how trustees had oversight of what happened to funds exchanged for the cheques, and if this cash has been used properly to support what the charities were set up to do.”
