About STEP DEVELOPMENT TRUST

Company type and jurisdiction

STEP DEVELOPMENT TRUST is a private company limited by guarantee. It has no shares: its members agree to pay a fixed amount, often £1, if it is wound up. This structure is typical of charities, clubs, trade bodies and social enterprises. Its company number 03339143 shows it was registered in England and Wales, so its records are kept by Companies House in Cardiff. It has been on the register for 29 years and 7 months.

What STEP DEVELOPMENT TRUST does

On the public register, STEP DEVELOPMENT TRUST lists 4 activities using the UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2007): management consultancy activities other than financial management (70229); primary education (85200); technical and vocational secondary education (85320); fitness facilities (93130). This places it in the professional, scientific and technical activities section of the economy. SIC codes describe what a company says it does; they are not a licence and are not checked by Companies House. See other companies with the same SIC code.

Where STEP DEVELOPMENT TRUST is registered

Its registered office is in Sheffield (postcode district S36). The registered office is the official address for letters from Companies House, HMRC and the courts. It must be in the same UK jurisdiction where the company was registered, but it does not have to be where the business trades: many companies use their accountant's or a formation agent's address.

A company that does not file a confirmation statement can be struck off the register.
