Your rights as a fundraiser

Governance and ComplianceEthics
Standard Content

This page covers your rights as a fundraiser, including signposting to relevant external resources.

Fundraising is an important job, and one that you should feel proud to do as you inspire people to support charities and good causes. But it’s equally important for you, as a fundraiser, to feel safe and supported as you go about your work – whether that’s in the office, out at fundraising events, or meeting donors. We want fundraisers to work in a positive and open culture, where everyone is treated – and treats others - with respect, where everyone is protected from discrimination, harassment, and bullying of any kind.

The guidance on these pages is designed to help you know your rights and what to do if things go wrong.

It’s not always easy being a fundraiser, but it’s one of the most important roles within any charity. Here at the Chartered Insitute of Fundraising, we believe that everyone involved in fundraising is supported at work and in their role to feel safe, valued and nurtured in the workplace.

Ceri Edwards, Director of People & Engagement at the Chartered Institute of Fundraising
