Charity Commission guidance says an unincorporated charity can hold property through a nominee company, as long as the company is controlled by the trustees. Great.
If it's a limited company, does this offer any protection the trustees from liability for the building? Eg, if the freeholder were sued, would this be the company, or could the person suing go after the trustees behind the nominee?
(I realise the charity is probably the occupier anyway, so trustees would still be liable as occupiers. But that's not the only liability in a building.)
Thanks.
