The Fundraising Regulator
We work with the Fundraising Regulator, an independent body who set and maintain the standards for charitable fundraising.
Who is the Fundraising Regulator?
The Fundraising Regulator is an independent body that regulates charitable fundraising in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The role of the Fundraising Regulator is:
- to set and promote the standards for fundraising practice in consultation with the public, fundraising stakeholders and legislators
- to investigate cases where fundraising practices have led to significant public concern
- to judge complaints from the public about fundraising practice, where these cannot be resolved by the charities themselves
- to run a fundraising preference service to enable individuals to manage their contact with charities
- where poor fundraising practice is decided to have taken place, recommend best practice guidance and take proportionate remedial action.
How we work with the Fundraising Regulator
By working with the Fundraising Regulator, we aim to maintain standards of honesty, fairness and openness in our fundraising.
We include the Fundraising Regulator's logo on materials where we promote ways to support the BHF. This is to show the public that we want to maintain high standards.
Please use the most up-to-date versions of any materials you have so that the Fundraising Regulator's logo is clearly displayed.
