New compliance offers ”to improve fundraiser standards”
The appointment of a new quality and compliance officer at the Public Fundraising Regulatory Association (PFRA) could help to drive street fundraisers” standards, it has been suggested.
Commenting on the news, Nick Henry has been hired to maintain and improve standards among those working in the third sector who raise funds on a face-to-face basis, the PFRA claims such fundraisers will be monitored using both covert and overt tactics.
Mick Aldridge, chief executive of the PFRA, tells ThirdSector.co.uk: "He may be watching from behind his newspaper, but there will also be more overt monitoring, where he”ll tell fundraisers he is going to observe their activity."
Furthermore, Mr Henry will respond to public and local authority complaints about fundraisers.
Such news could interest those third sector bodies looking to improve the skills framework of their staff.
Meanwhile, four-fifths of those recently questioned by G2 Data Dynamics recently claimed they donate on a regular basis, with 58 per cent of these stating that their level of giving will remain unchanged despite the financial downturn.
More skills framework information.
