Institute of Fundraising to publish additional guidance on accepting donations - Third Sector: "It says the move is not inspired by the recent debate over charities accepting donations from the News of the World

The Institute of Fundraising is to publish additional guidance for charities on whether to accept or refuse donations.

A spokeswoman told Third Sector that discussions on the guidance had started earlier this year and had not been inspired by the recent debate about whether charities should accept donations from the News of the World.

The guidance, which has a working title of Gift Acceptance Processes, will sit alongside the IoF's Acceptance or Refusal of Donations Code of Fundraising Practice."
