2 years ago i donated over 3 grand from harelaw i personally donated 500 from my own pocket. no thank you no letter of reciept no response to my questions on how it would be spent,nothing . And the staff they sent to run it were on double time and very unhelpful. i was very dissapointed in macmillan for the way they operated there prizes were shocking and no effort was made on there behalf to generate anything for a raffle which i had over 100 prizes.

In hindsight if i raised any money in future it would be spent directly on youth development for under privelledged children or those with a disability.
