NSPCC tries to justify themselves, wasting money or not?
Hi Readers,
Just had an interesting email off NSPCC, It goes like this:
Thank you for your email. If you have any complaints about the NSPCC we would advise you to write to us so that we can try and address them.
It is untrue to say the NSPCC spends any money on first class travel. We have a strict policy on not doing so, unless, as sometimes occurs, first class travel actually works out cheaper. The NSPCC no longer provides company cars although there are 20 in use. It is untrue to state that millions have been spent on first class travel, executive company cars and functions. What functions we do have are often paid for by corporate sponsors and are intended to raise funds for our work preventing cruelty to children.
We hope that this assures you that our priority is and always will be preventing cruelty to children.
Regards

Can anyone here spot the holes in this email??
Do you think that public donation should have ever been spent on company cars?? Whether they are replacing them or not, they should get rid of them now and put the money back into the funds, and I am sorry to say, that no one should get paid high salaries to run a charity, its morally wrong and disgraceful, so the next time you decide to donate to charities like this one!!
Remember this!! Are you happy that they have spend money in past on company cars and still running them? Do you also agree what this duty enquiries officers email states, that first class travel works out cheaper than second class travel? Have I missed something here?
Millions or Billions of pounds ploughed into the NSPCC? Are we getting value for money, I would love to hear your views about this charity.

God, I hate the NSPCC its a useless charity, I have a right to an opinion.They tell people that they help and rescue abused children when the majority of their work is dealing with adults who sexually abuse children, which is a waste of time.

are the NSPCC truly UK wide? I have a vague memory that the actual services they provide are concentrated in England.
I wouldn’t contribute to them.

I have never been a great fan of the NSPCC. Those adverts on TV scare the crap out of my kids. I know it’s a simple view but why the hell should I give my money to a charity that (in theory)protects some children with money raised by scaring the fucking shit out of other children. Those adverts aren’t aimed at adults, they are aimed at kids. Kids find the images disturbing and then ask the adults about them. It makes the kids think they are lucky to have a stable, nice home life (when in fact it’s their fucking right as children) and it makes them feel guilty for what they have. They then pressurise parents into giving money to the NSPCC because is makes them.That fucking sucks. Those post were brill.

I am disgusted by the NSPCC.
In the Eastern region there is basically fuck all for kids that have sufferred trauma & ABUSE.
What do they do? Pull the plug on the only provision they do have in Norwich which saw dedicated & committed front line workers saying goodbye to the children that they were supporting.
