Howard Lake | 3 March 2006 | News
The Institute of Fundraising is consulting on the development of two Codes of Fundraising Practice covering Event Fundraising and Face to Face Fundraising.
Draft Codes have been prepared and are published online at the Institute’s website. The first Events Code and revised Face to Face Fundraising Code are now open for consultation and the Institute is asking charities to add their comments to improve the drafts.
The Draft Code on fundraising events covers planning, what to do on the day and follow up, plus an extensive legal section detailing charity law as well as legal requirements relating to event licensing requirements, music and considerations for when children will be attending.
