Ok, it's official, solicitors charge way too much (anyone particularly
surprised?). I've just got a rough budget from a solicitor
specialising in charities and for them to have a "light touch
involvement" in us getting registered with the appropriate authorities
will cost "between £1200 to £1500 (plus VAT)" (given their hourly
rates, that comes to about 6 hours work, God knows how they call that
"light touch" - it's just a few modifications to the models and a
couple of forms!). I think we'll have to do it ourselves, hope we
don't make any particularly serious mistakes and just find someone to
witness it (which is what WER did, I believe - it seems the only way).
