Others also prefer to give their time. I'm not sure what your beef here is. It is a suggestion not a policy.

Glennis Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I sure most people give more than 1% to charity taking into account, tin collections, work collections and a few quid a month on a direct debit payment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
