I got a leaflet in from "Care and Concern in Action (HMS)
There is a charity number - it does not say "registered " charity, an address and a NI phone number.
The leaflet is the usual, miss spellings, very vague, and tells you nothing about the charity.
However this change to the usual, as well as the request for clothes, they now include the following "roundsmen are not allowed to collection cash donations, but, if you wish to do so, then you may send donations to XXXX.(I have not given the address, but it would appear to be a residential housing estate address)
Is there anywhere I can report it, so that it can be verified. It is bad enough requesting clothes, but to actually request cash donations to be sent by post. I hate the thought of anyone sending cash to a charity where the credentials cannot be checked. Has anyone had experience of this charity recently.
Thanks
