The Charity Commission have released new guidance for charities on regulations coming into force on 1 September 2025.

Large charities (for example those with over 250 employees) will be subject to tighter regulations around preventing fraud, and the Charity Commission have sent out alerts to charities who may be affected. 

New businesses in Kensington and Chelsea can take up the offer of free business advice from Portobello Business Centre - even if you're just at the idea stage.

Portolbello Business Centre offers free 1-to-1 business advice. PBC have offered guidance to new businesses in the area for 25 years, across a range of industries and stages of setting up a business.

Over the next few weeks, we will be running a new series on each of our teams here at KCSC.

We sat down with each of our teams and asked them a few questions about their work, the projects they've been involved in recently, and what they are looking forward to over the next year or so.

First up, it's the Community Development team - Lucy Hughes, Community Resilience Programme Manager and Joe Batty, Community Development Manager.
