The Ethical Property Foundation (“EPF”) is the UK’s go-to property advice charity for the voluntary sector. Incorporated in 2003, we have to date supported 6000+ voluntary organisations and since 2015, we have been sole referral partner to the Charity Commission for land & property advice. Our goal is to equip voluntary organisations with the knowledge and confidence to make the most of the property they occupy and manage, for the benefit of their service and beneficiaries, without crises or compliance failures. We are a small, dynamic, and socially enterprising organisation. Our services comprise of free, independent property guidance and support, and affordable consultancy, as well as online property education and research. We run an expert Register of Property Professionals, primarily solicitors and surveyors, who provide advice on a pro bono and discounted fee basis.
We aim to do this through the provision of appropriate and affordable advice and education to charities and community groups; and through research and the promotion of best practice in the commercial property sector.
