Welcome to the PFRA

Public Fundraising by Personal Solicitation of Committed Gifts, often known as face-to-face fundraising, generates pledges of over £200 million per year for good causes by giving people the opportunity to give a small, regular donation, which over a long period of time adds up to a considerable amount. It is convenient, tax efficient and cost effective for both the donor and the charity and helps charities to reach out to donors who might otherwise be unaware of their work.

Dedicated to high standards of quality, transparency and integrity, the Public Fundraising Regulatory Association (PFRA) regulates the use of face-to-face fundraising by charities and professional fundraising organisations and works with local authorities to ensure that fundraising sites are used appropriately. It enforces a code of practice, which aims to make certain that people’s experience of face-to-face fundraising is positive, and uses an accreditation scheme, mystery shopping and feedback from stakeholders and members of the public to monitor our members’ compliance.
