Are you demonstrating commitment to best practice fundraising?

Charity fundraising: a guide to trustee duties (CC20) sets out the law and good practice principles for trustees to follow when dealing with fundraising. It highlights the importance of following the recognised standards for fundraising, which are set by the Fundraising Regulator in the Code of Fundraising Practice.

Charities can now demonstrate their commitment to best practice fundraising in 2 ways:

• charities with fundraising costs in excess of £100,000, by paying the voluntary levy to meet the costs of the Fundraising Regulator; letters and invoices have already gone out to all charities covered by the levy. If you have any queries or are not sure if your charity has paid, please contact levy@fundraisingregulator.org.uk or info@silsolutions.co.uk
• other charities can now voluntarily register with the FR

Charities who demonstrate their support receive public recognition on the register displayed on the Fundraising Regulator's website and can use the regulator's badge on their fundraising and marketing material.
