Nonprofit Disclosure
Effective date: 19 August 2026
This page sets out Cyrus & Esther's legal status, registration details and governance, for transparency.
1. Legal name and status
Cyrus & Esther is registered with Companies House as a Community Interest Company (CIC), a corporate structure for organisations that use their profits and assets for the public good.
- Cyrus & Esther CIC
- Company number: 17377832 (registered in England and Wales)
- Registered office: London, UK
Incorporated: 3 August 2026.
2. Charitable status
Cyrus & Esther CIC is not currently a registered charity. Registration as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) with the Charity Commission for England and Wales is in progress. Until that registration is confirmed, donations to Cyrus & Esther are not eligible for Gift Aid, and we make no claim of charitable tax status. This page will be updated with our charity registration number as soon as it is confirmed.
3. Governance
As a Community Interest Company, Cyrus & Esther is subject to the CIC Regulator's community interest test and reporting requirements, in addition to standard Companies House filing obligations. Our board and governance arrangements are being formalised alongside our CIO registration; details will be published here, including on our Team page, as they are confirmed.
4. Financial transparency
As a company, Cyrus & Esther CIC is required to file annual accounts and a confirmation statement with Companies House, both of which are publicly available. Once our CIO registration is complete, we will also be subject to the Charity Commission's separate financial reporting requirements, and will publish our accounts accordingly.
5. How funds are used
Cyrus & Esther intends to structure fundraising and donations around specific, named projects rather than a single general fund, so supporters can see what their contribution supports. Details will be published on our Donate page once giving is live.
6. Regulatory bodies
Cyrus & Esther CIC is currently regulated by:
- Companies House (company registration and filing)
- The Regulator of Community Interest Companies (CIC status)
and will additionally be regulated by the Charity Commission for England and Wales once our CIO registration is confirmed.
