That was the essence of the point I was making - most people don’t realise that trustees have personal legal liability for what the charity does, except for charities that have Charitable Incorporated Organisation status. It’s essential to understand where the charity stands financially and with its other various creditors, as well as its legal constitution, before signing up.
