**Fundraising think tank [Rogare](https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/schools/plymouth-business-school/rogare)
is seeking views for a survey conducted by its Advisory Panel member Adrian Salmon,
which explores the relationships fundraisers have with their beneficiaries.**

The survey is open to all fundraisers working for UK charities, and is being managed
by the [Plymouth Charity Lab](https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/schools/plymouth-business-school/experimental-lab-or-sustainable-philanthropy)
with Salmon to present the results at the Institute of Fundraising Scotland Conference
in October.

The survey contains 10 questions, including asking fundraisers if they consult their
beneficiaries about fundraising materials, how easy it is to reach their beneficiaries
to talk to them, and who at the charity is responsible for how beneficiaries are
depicted in marketing materials.

Rogare director Ian MacQuillin said:

> “Rogare is attempting to refocus fundraising’s professional ethics by encouraging
> fundraisers to balance their duties to both donors and beneficiaries. To do that,
> fundraisers will need to have relationships with their beneficiaries, so this 
> is an important study exploring what the current state of those relationships 
> might be.”
