Key Points: 
  • Chuggers

    Chuggers is a term sometimes used to describe those involved in fundraising where people are asked to sign direct debits to charity, often on the street.

  • Charities and other organisations which use this method of fundraising do not use the term chuggers and instead refer to face-to-face or F2F fundraising.
  • The Fundraising Regulator has published information, for both fundraisers and the public, under the heading, Direct debit fundraising: street and private site.
  • The Fundraising Regulator deals with complaints about fundraising in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and fundraising in Scotland where it is carried out by charities registered primarily with the Charity Commission for England and Wales or the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.
