A dear cousin died recently and we were encouraged to donate to a local hospice via a Just Giving page. I went through all the motions : posting a message, giving my credit card details and address only to discover at the very end that they had added a fee of 20 %. Fortunately I had not pressed the confirm button so am now in the process of sending the donation directly to the hospice. I have since been reading up about Just Giving and their unacceptable profit margins. How can they justify it? Many of you will obviously be aware of this but a word of warning to the naive like myself. Don’t be sucked in . Donate direct.
