Serious Incident Reporting
Change to ALL Charity Commission Email Addresses. From 31 March 2019, any emails sent to Charity Commission email addresses containing the letters “gsi” will not be received by the Charity Commission. All Serious Incident Reports should be sent to the new email address: rsi [at] charitycommission.gov.uk. All parishes are accepted charities under the Diocese and some will have their own charitable status. Those who don’t have charitable status can use the diocesan charity number which is 1155876
