Charities SORP 2025 Consultation
The Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) consultation is now open, and Charity Finance Group (CFG) to work with you to provide a combined response for the charity sector.
The SORP-making body (consisting of the charity regulators of the UK and Republic of Ireland) is leading the development. Below is the published timeline:
- March 2025: public consultation will open and will run for 12 weeks.
- June-July 2025: consultation responses will be reviewed and the SORP will be updated as necessary.
- August to September 2025: FRC to approve the final version.
- 1 January 2026: Third edition of the SORP comes into effect.
During the consultation phase CFG will be:
- Inviting feedback during the consultation phase that will be collated and used to shape CFG’s response to the consultation.
- Engaging with charities, partners and other interested parties and experts through a series of consultation meetings and roundtables, convened by CFG.
- Engaging with stakeholders through their own events and meetings, to share CFG’s insights and updates.
- Sharing other opportunities to engage in the development process, for example, through surveys.
CFG is hosting four online free-for-members consultation meetings, alongside our trusted partners. This is your opportunity to input into the consultation and shape the SORP.
Each meeting will be the same so you only need to attend one:
Further updates and information will be shared on CFG’s SORP news page.
