Established in January 2016, the Fundraising Regulator (FR) is responsible for self-regulating all types of charitable fundraising and has a remit to investigate and adjudicate against all charitable organisations which fundraise.
Chaired by Lord Michael Grade, it is governed by a 10 member Executive Board of Directors, drawn from both inside and outside the fundraising sector.

They must also have ability to work in a complex and dynamic political environment, subject to Parliamentary, public and media scrutiny.
