Do I need to be registered with CharitIes Commission

Start-up Charity

Michael Sloan Carnellan House Posted 10 months ago

We are in the process of forming a charity as want some advice on whether to register or not.
All funding will be from a private donor or as direct donations from other limited companies we are creating. We will not seek any donations from the public or any unconnected third party.
My understanding of the purpose of the Charity Commission is in part to ensure approve safeguards are in place to ensure public donations are not abused.
As we will not have any such funds then is registration actually necessary?
Would welcome advice or pointers to anyone who could give us professional advice 
Thanks
