The Public Fundraising Regulatory Association is the charity-led self-regulatory membership body for all types of face-to-face fundraising (F2F). Face-to-face fundraising is the personal solicitation (almost always by a professional fundraiser) of a regular charity donation via a direct debit.
PFRA has as dual role as a regulator in being the bridge between councils and charities practising F2F: maintaining professional standards and ensuring fair allocation of fundraising on the ground.
This section explains how the PFRA is constituted, governed and funded.
