About The Fundraising Regulator

The Fundraising Regulator is the independent regulator of charitable fundraising in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Established to ensure that fundraising is conducted in a fair, transparent, and accountable manner, the organization plays a crucial role in maintaining public trust in charities.

Our core mission is to protect the public by ensuring that fundraising practices are ethical and comply with the law. We provide guidance and support to charities and fundraisers, helping them navigate the complex landscape of fundraising regulations.

We also handle complaints from the public regarding fundraising practices, ensuring that any issues are addressed promptly and effectively. By doing so, we aim to foster a culture of accountability within the charity sector.

In addition to our regulatory functions, The Fundraising Regulator works closely with various stakeholders, including charities, fundraising organizations, and the public, to promote best practices in fundraising. We believe that effective fundraising is essential for charities to achieve their missions and serve their communities.

Our vision is to create a fundraising environment where the public can give with confidence, knowing that their donations will be used responsibly and ethically. We strive to enhance the reputation of the charity sector through rigorous regulation and proactive engagement with all parties involved in fundraising.

Through our work, we aim to ensure that fundraising remains a vital source of income for charities while upholding the highest standards of integrity and transparency.
