Charity Check
Provides a service mainly to local authorities and owners of retail premises, enabling them to check well in advance that any charity collection they authorise is genuine. How? By checking, for example, that the charity or cause to benefit is reputable, not merely registered and the collector or organiser genuinely acts for that charity or cause.
Charity Check also provides a service to charities to make it more likely that they will actually receive the proceeds of collections made in their name.
They have a newer web site at http://www.charitycollections.org to help you to check whether collections you see are in order, especially direct debit collections
