On the fifth day we look at Fundraising

The revised code of fundraising practice came into effect on 1 October 2019 and sets out the responsibilities that apply to fundraising by charities and 3rd party fundraisers in the UK.

Charities subject to the audit requirements of the Charities Act 2011, are required to include compliance disclosures in the Trustee’s Report and where a charity does not carry out significant fundraising activities, the report should include a statement of that fact together with any useful information relevant to the legal requirements.It is therefore important that the Trustee’s understand the obligations placed on the charity.

The Fundraising Regulator has invested in bringing the code to life online, as well as having a PDF version available for download.
