Re: Future of the Monarchy
Twink I am going to agree to disagree with you on this one.
Most people donate to a charity because it resonates with them for some reason or other not because it has a royal as a patron.
The most popular charity in the U.K. is The British Heart Foundation ( Patron Prince Phillip) something I have just found out although I have donated to it since Mr M had his heart attack .
Most people have or know of someone who has suffered from heart trouble hence it is the one most people donate too .
I donate to two children’s charities I have no idea who their patrons are and several animal ones ditto . It make no difference to me because I know of the good work they do .
One is quite obscure and others are local ie the sanctuary where I got my dog . ( The Collie Spot Binfield)
The best way the royals can help a charity is by giving a fat cheque and perhaps they do I hope so .
