Just getting ready for the fundraising event here and also just been told that the head man for MND Assoc here in Britain is getting £140,000 per year plus a car.
Totally pole-axed. Surely this is not true? Does this mean our fund raising will just about pay for his car service? I now do not want the money raised going direct to MND Assoc.
I'd rather it was kept in account and used for the person we are raising this money for. In time she will need aids. I dont want this money going towards this man who, in my eyes, is being paid an obscene amount of money. I appreciate that wages have to be paid but - £140,000 per year? and that's just the one employee. That is on par with our Prime Ministers wage! Unbelieveable. Does anyone on this forum know any facts? I have the website address to check and will do so when I come back. I remember when my aunt was diagnosed, the MND nurse told me to put in for everything she may need now as it can take months for anything to come through. Sadly, she has now passed and now another young woman we know has been diagnosed. I want her to benefit from the fund raising now taking place - Not some guy with a merc. Or am I being unfair?
I appreciate that research has to be funded but just what percentage of the money raised is actually going towards this research? Sorry for the rant but this just p***** me off.
