“A third-party fundraiser which asks for money or other property for charitable, benevolent or philanthropic purposes. ‘Third-party fundraiser’ means an organisation or person or a charitable institution has authorised to ask for donations on its behalf. This may be a volunteer, professional fundraiser or commercial partner if they are fundraising.” – The Fundraising Regulator
“Legal: All fundraising must meet the requirements of the law.
Open: Fundraisers must be open with the public about their processes and must be willing to explain (where appropriate) if they are asked for more information.
Honest: Fundraisers must act with integrity and must not mislead the public about the cause they are fundraising for or the way a donation will be used.
Respectful: Fundraisers must demonstrate respect whenever they have contact with any member of the public.” – Code of Fundraising Practice
