Our approach to fundraising

We will:

• always be clear about how much money we need and exactly how it will be spent;
• only contact you as often as you are comfortable with, and only in a way you are happy with (e.g. post, telephone or email); and
• be accountable, disclosing revenue and expenses in our financial reports.

We will not:

• sell or share your details with anyone;
• accept money obtained through criminal activity or tax evasion; or
• accept donations where the terms will restrict academic freedom.

For full details, see our fundraising code of practice and acceptance of donations policy (PDF).
