About this event

  • Event lasts 30 minutes

Black South West Network Community Building Team and VOSCUR are pleased to invite you to a 30 mins online briefing on the changes relating to Directors’ Identity Checks.

About the organisers

BSWN is a racial justice organisation with over 15+ years of experience working in the South West to enable Black and Minoritised communities, businesses, and the community sector to take action against racial systemic inequality.

About this event

From the Autumn 2025, it will be a legal requirement for ALL directors of companies and community interest companies to have their identity checked either to become or to remain a director on Companies House. This new legal requirement has been brought up to deter people from creating companies for illegal purposes. These half an hour briefings are organised to help you to understand this new requirement and to help you comply with the law.

Who is this event for?

These events are for existing and would be directors of non-profit companies.

What will be covered?

  • What is the new legal requirement?
  • How does it affect existing directors?
  • How does it affect new directors?
  • Questions and answers.

Who will we hear from?

The event on the 29th September will be led by Jenny Wildblood from Voscur.

What else do I need to know?

This is an online event and the link will be sent to you before the event.
