Charities and Political Policy/Campaigning

There are a number of ways in which a charity may be at risk of becoming embroiled in party politics, albeit unintentionally. These are set out under five headings, along with best practice advice covered in this eBook. This eBook does not serve to advocate not developing a policy that embraces lobbying and certainly not of campaigning but merely airs caution to consideration that have to be considered in the process of adopting any policy and practice which involve this. It is a basic simple neutral guide and does not cover what is a complexed comprehensive matter, not includes a list of lobbyists. Professional advice should be sought and guidance is available from the Charity Commission – a link to their relevant webpage is given in this eBook.
