Templates and examples
SusCoHulme have developed documents and templates for your use. Below we will list documents and what they can be used for.
Developing a strategy
When you have completed a consultation, you need to record all the feedback you have had in a central document which covers what you want, where you want it, and why. Download our template below to start filling out your strategy.
Political approval of the strategy
When you have completed a consultation and have written your strategy you can use the below approval letter template, enter your projects details, and then send off to your local MP and councillors requesting their written support for your scheme.
How to form a CIC
The process for setting up a CIC is pretty easy, you have unlimited attempts to get the documentation right, and you get feedback (and your registration fee refunded) every time you submit to form a CIC.
Before you start you’ll need a minimum 3 members (Chair, Treasurer, and Secretary), and £65 to pay for registration. Follow the link below to get the most up to date UK Gov information on CIC registration.
