Welcome to the updated and revised PFRA website. Much of this site is still "under construction" so some of the functions may not currently be working. Nevertheless we hope you manage to find your way around, and that the content is useful and informative.

Face-to-face fundraising continues to be one of the most effective ways for charities to recruit new committed supporters. Every year, an incredible half a million plus people pledge their support to charities through face-to-face fundraisers they meet on the street or greet on their doorstep. Simply put, there’s no better way for deserving causes to enthuse people to become donors, campaigners or volunteers. And we exist to make sure it all happens in the right way – politely, positively, and professionally.
So what do we do? Working with charities, professional fundraising organisations, statutory regulators, local authorities and national governments throughout the UK, we regulate face-to-face in public places in all its forms, every step of the way. We ensure all our fully accredited members adhere to the Institute of Fundraising Code of Practice, and monitor how and when public places are used for fundraising through active partnerships with individual councils. We see to it that each of our charity members has fair and equal access to fundraising opportunities. We make certain the public can enjoy a positive, safe, and informative experience of face-to-face. And, where necessary, we take action if the Code of Practice or a local Site Management Agreement is breached in any way.
We have arranged this site in what we hope is an accessible manner, which you will find informative and useful; but we are always happy to receive feedback from any visitor, and if you have a specific query that isn’t addressed on these pages or simply want to know more, we’d especially like to hear from you.
These are some of our regulatory and best-practice partners who offer their support to our work
