Cancer is a horrible disease and has touched a number of people I love and care for. In fact, I shaved off my beard for a local charity. Something about this #BreastCancerResearchAid leaflet shoved through my letterbox has piqued my interest. I& #39;ve done a little research. /Thread
It& #39;s a registered charity in England, Wales and Scotland. Odd that they are doing collections in Belfast and don& #39;t seem to be registered with @CharityCommNI
Their website is very pink, but does not list any Officers/Trustees, has sparse information on where the money goes and uses generic email address for contact details
It says that it supports @royalmarsden @royalmarsdenNHS @CUCancerInst and funds work done by Professor Matt Smalley and Professor Nicholas Turner. No detail in the accounts, but expenses are high. http://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/Accounts/Ends74/0001166674_AC_20190331_E_C.pdf">https://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/Accounts/... #BreastCancerResearchAid
#BreastCancerResearchAid have no presence on Twitter, Facebook or Linkedin. They aren& #39;t the ones collecting - it& #39;s a third party company called Giving Support Limited. Odd structure.
#GivingSupportLimited guarantee to give #BreastCancerResearchAid £50 per year (that& #39;s a full stop). I find this disgraceful. I& #39;ve created this thread so when people search, these results will come up. Continue to be charitable, but through reputable charities.
