The Fundraising Regulator (the 'Regulator') launched its Code of Fundraising Practice Review 2022-24 consultation on Wednesday 6 September 2023, giving charitable organisations an opportunity to share their views and assist with refining and developing proposals for potential changes to the regulation of charitable fundraising. They estimated that the consultation will close after 12 weeks.

The Regulator's Code of Fundraising Practice (the 'Code') applies to all fundraising carried out by charitable, philanthropic and benevolent organisations and third-party fundraisers, extending to organisations employed by charities to raise funds for them, and online fundraising platforms, across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
