Charitable Street Collections
- Charities wishing to make a street collection within Elmbridge must be registered with the Council and have a permit issued for the date of their collection.
- We will not usually issue permits for two charities to collect in the same location on a given date.
- Only charities registered with the Charities Commission or locally based ones can apply for registration.
- There is no fee associated with registration.
- All registered charities need to make a return after each collection to show how much money was raised and the amount taken up by expenses.
- Some national charities have Home Office Exemption Orders to hold house-to-house collections, other charities need to apply to the Council to be registered and have a permit issued for the dates required.
