Jon the Hat Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 Good cause. Sounds like a lot of travel though, I hope she had some kind of carbon offset organised...
Daggers Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 How do I know if I'm going to disagree if I don't know what it is?
Rincewind Posted 16 July 2012 Author Posted 16 July 2012 If I posted anything that is about anyone worse off than some posters the thread will turn into a 30 page thread about tax dodgers and benefit scroungers. If anyone wants to coipy and paste they are free to do so. I just dont want to be accused of stirring it.

If anyone wants to coipy and paste they are free to do so. I just dont want to be accused of stirring it. You have posted something about people worse off than all the posters on FT, you've just linked to an article about fundraising for the young homeless. What on Earth are you "stirring" and would it matter if you were anyway? I'm absolutely lost here.
Rincewind Posted 16 July 2012 Author Posted 16 July 2012 Some may not agree with you. Off to some w0ork program now. I'll leave this open to discussion. RAM Vision has partnered with UK homeless charity Centrepoint to donate £1M of airtime across its screen network in UK Shopping malls. The campaign, titled Miles for Myles, will feature new artist and charity patron Kristyna Myles busking to raise donations to support the charity’s mission of giving young homeless people a future. Kristyna, who is no stranger to busking having won the Radio 5 Live Busker of the Year Award in 2005 and has recently signed with DECCA Universal, will be in the Bluewater shopping centre on the 14th July from 12 – 4pm. This will further her goal to raise a minimum of £250,000 in a campaign which will see her travel 10,000 miles to drive awareness of the Centrepoint charity and the need to end youth homelessness through housing and support. Centrepoint is the UK's leading charity for homeless young people, supporting 16-25 years olds with housing, learning, health and life skills. The campaign was planned and created in-house by the RAM Vision’s creative department working closely with Kristyna, DECCA and Centrepoint. Throughout the campaign, the creative explains Kristyna’s mission, displays messages from Centrepoint and informs people how to donate.
Rincewind Posted 16 July 2012 Author Posted 16 July 2012 Yes I believe it to be a good cause. I was just worried about things turning out like the Glenfield Hospital thread or benefits for under 25's being cut thread or the cleaners thread. But I could be wrong there could be a 100% thumbs up even from the usual suspects.
MooseBreath Posted 17 July 2012 Posted 17 July 2012 I doubt the usual suspects have much of a problem with this kind of charity work. If I was forced to pay for it like I am with benefits then it might be different, of course
