Sensible answers only please.

What I've been reading a few weeks ago, its going to different charities, then to another, passing to another and then seems to get lost somehow. Apart from the odd free shop within a hospital for nurses to get free coffee/tea and a free sarnie???

NHS Together are responsible for distributing the amount he raised along with millions more raised by others.

Apply to them for a full diclosure.

Thought it was over £30m that he raised....Teapots

Wonder If any NHS managers and accountants had a raise in salary, ??

[Mamyalynne]

All Charities publish annual accounts.

Wonder if any of Toms money went astray, it seems such a large amount to just give NHS Nurses free coffee and a sandwich.

Well if the millions and millions of Covid testing kits are anything to go by, I would surmise that most of it has gone to China to pay for some of those.

I answered this question recently here:
https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/ChatterBank/Question1778180.html

My post includes a link to a pdf document that shows where the funds collected by NHS Charities Together have been going. (The money raised by Captain Tom wasn't ring-fenced, so there are no specific accounts showing where 'his' money went to. There are only accounts, as per my link, showing where all the money raised by NHSCT went).

19.22, Wonder if any of Toms money ended up paying for Covid kits supplied by the Crony Club.

Thanks jno, but that doesn't relate to the OP.

[Mamyalynne]
