Navigating the Code of Fundraising Practice Online

Priya Warner shares tips for navigating the Code of Fundraising Practice online ahead of her session at Fundraising Now.
Do you know that the Code of Fundraising Practice sets the standards that apply to fundraising carried out by all charitable institutions and third party fundraisers in the UK?

The code has had its first major redraft in almost a decade to improve its style, presentation, clarity and accessibility. The revised code came into effect on 1 October 2019 alongside a new easier-to-use-and-navigate website version.

Click here for some top tips to bear in mind when using the code online.

Third sector- Why The Changing Landscape Of EU Integration Matters To You

The experience of being European in the UK is changing: and so, therefore, is the role of the third sector in attending to the needs of our communities. But are we adapting adequately to the changing needs of our population?

Do we understand the potential implications of current changes on the groups we serve?

Join New Europeans and the Brexit Civil Society Alliance on November 19th from 4.30 – 7pm at City Hall for a discussion of key issues for Europeans – and therefore, for the third sector.

We will be touching on the EU Settlement Scheme; hate crime and discrimination; and representation and community cohesion. We will also be launching the results of New Europeans’ research on the preparedness of the sector to support clients accessing the Settlement Scheme (the survey is still open until November 6th – please participate here).

We are particularly interested in inviting organisations to who do not already work in the immigration, migrant integration or advice sectors. We want to share and explore how these issues affect the third sector as a whole.

The event is free but registration is required. Book your place here.
