The register facts and available annual-return disclosures above remain useful. Payment never influences a rating. [How scoring works](https://www.charitycompare.org.uk/methodology) ## What should you check before donating to Rural Support? - Match the registered name and number to the appeal. A real charity number can be copied by someone impersonating the organisation. - Open the current register entry to check status, contact details and available accounts.
