Model Constitutions: PAVS has a range of model constitutions for voluntary groups ranging from detailed Charity Commission models through to simpler models for smaller groups. These models can be adapted to meet the needs of your group.  The Third Sector Support Team can offer support with the development of an appropriate legal structure that meets the needs of the group.
