We are a registered charity in England and Scotland, also a company registered in England. I have two questions which I would welcome help with:

1. Does the fact that we are not registered as a company in Scotland affect the liability of trustees when we are operating in Scotland? We are registered with Companies House in England

2. We have adopted an operating name of DeafVision, but our legal name is Cumbria Deaf Association. We want to use DeafVision, our operating name on the front cover of our Annual Report. Are there any legal difficulties with doing this? We will explain that this is an operating name within the report.
