Thanks very much for this Big Bloke, really helpful - and just the sort of thing we need at BizFace.

There is also a new programme where charities can promise to maintain certain standards and where you can get help with reporting scams etc.,

Welcome to the Fundraising Standards Board


I agree it is always best to check out a charity before spending any money - businesses just as much as individuals.

kind regards

Stephanie
