TRUSTED BY FOUNDERS AND TRUSTEES ACROSS THE UK
WE TWO FOUNDATION
(Charity Number 1196799)
Dwayne Fields and Phoebe Smith
Operating Expeditions Worldwide
“Rachael and her team are utter legends! They made the entire process of setting up the #WeTwo Foundation so easy - from start to finish. When we had a setback with establishing ourselves they were on the phone to us straight away and helped guide us through the next steps. Now thanks to them we are official, and will be taking our young people to Antarctica in November 2022. They are
also helping us keep legal with safeguarding legislation which was becoming an utter headache trying to solve ourselves. Highly recommended to take all the pain out of starting a charity.”

KICK START FC
(Charity Number ,1203577)
Michael Cunningham
Operating in England and Wales​
“For over a year I had attempted to register my support group Kick Start FC as a registered charity but kept hitting a brick wall. I found the wording and the process confusing, and I couldn't quite make sense of what I actually need to do or what I should register as.
I researched loads of websites and just could not get my head around it, nor could my team of volunteers. I contacted Third Sector Experts Ltd who provided an excellent service from start to finish. They explained every little detail to me, they were patient with me and answered any questions I had, and they kept me up to date on every step along the way.
Within a couple of months and a few emails, Kick Start FC is now a registered charity. I cannot recommend Third Sector Experts enough. It was create to be able to sit back and feel content knowing that someone was working hard to help us achieve our goal. If you are struggling like I was, don't hesitate to contact their team!”
THE LORNA LEGACY

​
“I reached out to Third Sector after years of trying to register my charity myself and just not doing a great job of it due to my demanding day job and not understanding certain elements.
Not only did Third Sector take over and run with it; they were friendly, approachable and went above and beyond the scope required! I so happy that my 12 year dream is now fully registered and we can now fundraise confidently and reach more people.”
