Charities & Non-Profits
E-Signature Software for UK Charities
Collect legally binding signatures on volunteer agreements, trustee declarations, grant agreements, and service user consent — affordably priced for the charity sector.
UK charities operate with limited resources and significant governance obligations. Charity Commission requirements, Fundraising Regulator standards, and UK GDPR all demand careful documentation of consent, agreements, and decisions. Trustee declarations, volunteer agreements, grant funding contracts, and service user consent forms all require signatures — yet charities often cannot afford per-user pricing. VedaSign charges £15/month regardless of how many staff, volunteers, or trustees need access. All data is stored in the UK, making GDPR compliance straightforward for charities handling sensitive beneficiary information.
