Ke1t Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 While it's admirable to see people get off their arse and do something for charity,and kudos to your wife for taking the time to support a charity she thinks is a worthwhile cause, this isn't a charity I would ever consider supporting. 10 Link to comment

Foster14 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 It is actually the nominated charity by Tough Mudder, so I assume that is why she went for it. I'm doing it as well with some others, and one suggested Help for Heroes. I said no way, we're doing it for CLAN instead. Link to comment
StevieT1986 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nothing wrong with Help For Heroes. I feel theyre a worthwhile cause. Cancer research uk is a waste of a donation. All the money just goes to admin 3 Link to comment
Ke1t Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nothing wrong with Help For Heroes. I feel theyre a worthwhile course. Cancer research is a waste of a donation Often people get cancer through no fault of their own, so I'd be inclined to donate to cancer research. Joining the army and getting pieces blown off is an entirely voluntary activity in the UK, so I'd be inclined to go "Oh well." If anyone should be responsible for looking after people who were maimed by a government's foreign policy it's the government itself, not charity. Also I don't consider a one-legged ex-squaddie a 'hero'. 3 Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nothing wrong with Help For Heroes. I feel theyre a worthwhile course. Cancer research is a waste of a donation All very well, but CLAN don't do research ffs... I've got nothing for or against Help for Heroes, I'm just more for: a) local charitiesb) charities that I find some relation to, though personal experience or information provided to me.

Redstar Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Am I right in thinking Mrs Laphroaig is doing a sponsored "taking it up the mudder" challenge?...how many blokes is she expected to "take" during the challenge?...I'm guessing a fair few as it is titled the tough mudder...anyway good luck to her...if she stays well lubed it should stand her in good stead...Hats off to you Laphroaig...there's not many who would be happy to let their Mrs take part in such an event.

brownie Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I have nothing against Help for Heroes. What I do have an issue with, is how a charity is carrying out the work that the government should be doing.The government themselves should be helping injured squaddies, not a charity that's gaining donations from the public. 3 Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 What a preposterous statement. Failed attempt at humour at the expense of someone's wlfe. If you can't say anything constructive, say nothing. 2 Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Why did you just quote my post oh hairy one?Think about what you posted. Then think what I wrote when I quoted it. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 You haven't written anything???Exactly. I'd nothing constructive to add so I said fuck all. Link to comment
ChutneyLove Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I sponsored some random off here for something a while back. Fuck knows if they did what they said they were going to do - can't even remember what it was. They got the money out my bank though. Well done I say. I give the odd bit of change in the tins on flag days and I pay some money to some pish charity every month, but claim it back on tax. Whatever the cause, if they use the money sensibly - or even if they just use it to get pished - well done. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Climbing Kilimanjaro. I don't think she's done it yet. Got a dodgy boyfriend as well so the money may be gone already. Link to comment
DD1903 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I don't have a problem with the charity, but I get enough sponsor requests through friends and family. So, to expect me to sponsor someone I have never met, and never will, is asking a bit much. Also, to then come back and slag us for not sponsoring is rather cheeky Link to comment
Sheep#1 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hun charity. No thanks.Bit of a sweeping statement there. Is it not more a charity the huns have latched onto for their own ends...? Link to comment

Tyrant Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Not a charity I would ever support for the reasons that others have already mentioned. 2 Link to comment
