In 2004 Professor Sargeant pioneered the public information website www.charityfacts.org designed to bolster public trust and confidence in the UK’s charity sector. The site is underpinned by an ongoing benchmarking study tracking the fundraising performance of a cross section of charities.[3] Most recently Professor Sargeant developed the UK’s new National Occupational Standard for Fundraising, specifying the skills and knowledge required of fundraisers working in a variety of different roles within the profession.[4]
In 2008 he was honoured by the Institute of Fundraising for his services to the profession of fundraising, becoming an Honorary Fellow of the Institute.[5] Along with Stephen Lee, Lindsay Boswell and Peter Maple he is calling for a greater investment in meaningful fundraising research in the UK[6]
