Billy Clarke has done a great job raising money for Bradford NHS. His Gofundme is over six grand. Nice to see one of ours doing good charity work during the crisis.

NHS doesn't require any additional money ???


In a fiscal statement dominated by the unfolding health crisis, Rishi Sunak said: “Whether it’s research for a vaccine, recruiting thousands of returning staff, or supporting our brilliant doctors and nurses, whether it’s millions of pounds or billions of pounds, whatever it needs, whatever it costs, we stand behind our NHS.”

Given that the Government can’t even provide basic protective equipment for NHS staff, I don’t think it’s a bad idea.

I never said that the nhs doesn't need more funding . I simply asked if it was a charity?  It's a yes or no answer

I reckon you're probably better off googling it then for an instant answer, rather than asking a bunch of fellas on an internet football forum.

Hes not raising money for the NHS directly its NHS Charities Together which is the official charity partner of the NHS nationally.

And not to belittle Captain Moore’s fund raising efforts and all those who contributed but yes his money is going to NHS Charities, normally this charity receives about £750 thousand a year and has a full time staff of 3, obviously now with all the various fund raising going on the monies have increased as have the staff. The only thing is I believe the vast majority of people who have given believed their money was going to the front line in buying PPE etc. but the various charities should now be better funded and more organisations will receive funds.
