Introduction to the Tier 4 Not for Profit Standard and what has changed

In March 2025 Charities Services hosted two webinars about the Tier 4 Not for Profit Standard.

The first webinar, Introduction to using the Tier 4 Not for Profit Standard, is designed for people who have never completed a performance report before and new organisations that have never filed, and covers:

  • Annual reporting obligations for Tier 4 registered charities

  • Each section of the Tier 4 (NFP) Performance Report and how to fill them in

  • Q&A session with Charities Services staff.

At the end of the webinar you will have seen what information registered charities must provide every year when reporting at tier 4.

  • Annual reporting obligations for Tier 4 registered charities

  • Specific differences between the Tier 4 Not for Profit (NFP) Standard and the PBE SFR-C (NFP) Public Benefit Entity Simple Format Reporting – Cash (Not-For-Profit) Standard
