What we do:
The Campaign for Freedom of Information is a non-profit organisation that has worked for 40 years to improve the public's rights to information from public authorities to support a more open democracy.

We played a key role in persuading the government to introduce the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act which came into force in 2005 - now a vital tool for journalists, campaigners and anyone with problems in their dealings with public bodies.

We advise the public about their rights, provide FOI training, try to improve how the FOI Act works and oppose unjustified attempts to restrict access to information rights.
