We’ll also cover important upcoming changes to how accounts are published on the Scottish Charity Register. From early 2026 (exact date to be confirmed), OSCR will begin publishing annual reports and accounts in full, without any changes, for every charity as soon as they are submitted. Unlike the previous approach, where only some accounts are published and personal details are redacted, OSCR will no longer remove any information from these documents. This makes it more important than ever to ensure your accounts are carefully prepared and reviewed before submission.

Join us to learn more about:

• What compliant accounts look like for smaller charities, including:
  • Trustees’ Annual Report
  • Receipts and Payments accounts
  • Statement of Balances
  • Independent Examiner’s Report
• Publication of all accounts on the Scottish Charity Register
• Exemption of charity trustee details being published on the Scottish Charity Register
• Q&A with OSCR’s accounting experts
