The Charity Commission, the regulator for England and Wales' 190,000 registered charities, has published its annual report for 2005-06.
The report reflects how the Charity Commission's new strategy is already resulting in more intelligent regulation, an approach that will facilitate the implementation of the anticipated Charities Act.
Key highlights of the Commission's year include:
* The launch of Charity Commission Direct, our one-stop-shop for queries from charities and the public
* Our Get on Board campaign which resulted in over 2,300 people signing up to become trustees
* Making the accounts of the largest 56,000 charities available to all on-line
* 23,000 cases of advice and guidance
* 5,153 new charities registered, and 5,138 removed from the register
* Over £11 million of charitable funds protected
* Over 29 million hits to our website
The report also includes details of its international programme, work with faith-based charities, research studies of the sector, our work with other regulators and the management of our resources.
