The Telling: Ethical Fundraising Statement

The Telling relies on philanthropic support and income from public bodies, foundations, private individuals and corporate sponsorship to maintain its programme of work.

 

These gifts may be in many forms, including monetary gifts, property, bequests, shares or in-kind services.

 

Individuals with responsibility for fundraising take all reasonable steps to ensure that they are aware of the source of funding in order to satisfy themselves that The Telling is not being used to facilitate money laundering or other criminal activity. The steps taken in each case are proportionate to the size of the donation and the relationship with the prospective donor. Fundraisers must take steps to determine that in each case the donation:

• complies with charity law and relevant legislation including the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, the Money Laundering Regulations 2007 and the Bribery Act 2010;

• does not carry a risk of material reputational damage; and

• does not pose an actual or potential conflict of interest.
