The Institute of Fundraising has decided to condense all its Codes of Fundraising
Practice into a single Code, supported by a range of additional guidance. The new
Code will be previewed to delegates at the Institute’s National Convention in July.

The move to a single Code of Fundraising Practice was taken following a [consultation of members](http://www.institute-of-fundraising.org.uk/guidance/codes-of-fundraising-practice/codes-review-20112012)
and stakeholders.

The Codes of Fundraising Practice are designed to integrate legal and best practice
standards so that fundraisers are aware of what is required of them and to give 
them guidance on how to achieve it. The standards provide the basis of self-regulation
for fundraising.

There are currently 28 Codes, with most Codes covering a particular fundraising 
discipline and a small number that span disciplines.
