The Fundraising Standards Board launched its membership recruitment campaign at 
the Institute of Fundraising Scotland’s conference this week – several months ahead
of the FSB in England and Wales.
FSB’s manager for Scotland and Northern Ireland,
Kate Higgins said: “The support of the fundraising sector in Scotland has been vital
in getting us to this stage in developing the self-regulatory scheme. So we were
delighted to launch our membership recruitment campaign at their conference.”

Forty charities have already signed up to the scheme. Two thousand application packs
have been sent out to organisations of all sizes, in all scetors, in all parts of
the country, working for all causes, said Higgins.

“This is the best way for organisations raising money from the public in Scotland
to demonstrate their commitment to high standards and excellence, and to promote
public trust and conficence in the sector.”
