DDP Connects UK & Ireland is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) that organises and develops the work of DDP in the UK and Ireland.
History
Interest in DDP locally has grown to the extent that a formal structure was needed to organise and provide training, therapy and parenting interventions.
We are continually developing our work and aim to support those certified in DDP and those in training. To help us do this we set up a not-for-profit company focusing on our work in the UK and Ireland. We work closely with DDPI Worldwide, with DDP Connects UK & Ireland and DDPI Worldwide having Directors in common to ensure good communication and collaboration around all aspects of DDP including training and certification.
What type of Company are we?
We are a Community Interest Company (CIC). We are formally incorporated as a private company limited by guarantee without share capital. Although we are a not-for-profit company we are not a registered charity and we have to pay Corporation Tax of 19% on all profits. All profits will be reinvested in the company.
When did we start?
We were incorporated on 12 April 2017
