Sports Relief
8 Answers
I have just received on Facebook a post suggesting that the £40,000,000 donated to Sports Relief would be better used for the NHS to provide breathing equipment. I would agree, but would doubt it could be, as donations were not intended for this purpose. But it would be good if there was a campaign to raise money for this. I am sure there are many who would contribute.

It is not just being able to buy breathing equipment, it's being able to get them supplied. There is a shortage of ventilators across europe ( due to Corona virus ).
However major car manufactures have been approached to see if they can make ventilators.

I hope Gary Lineker donated a couple of quid out of his BBC salary.
Gary Lineker has remained the top paid BBC star for the second year in a row, earning a salary of £1,750,000-£1,754,999. The BBC recently released its annual report detailing the highest paid stars in 2018-19, with Chris Evans taking second place and Graham Norton coming third. A caller expressed his frustration at Gary Lineker’s salary earlier on Tuesday, questioning how the BBC broadcaster “justifies” his salary.

Its not like us not to have had a fund to support the investment in ventilators by now. I certainly think we should.

well anyway the answer is no unless it is shoved into the all purpose Coronavirus Bill
the money needs to be spent on the purpose for which is donated,
or if that fails then something near ( cy pres rule) and if that fails then returned to the donor
is a short statement of what the law is currently

And it's having staff trained to use them, it's not just the ventilators it's everything that goes with it. Caring for arterial lines, and understanding blood gases, understanding airway pressures, how and when to suction secretions. You can't throw a ward nurse into ITU without senior staff being available to train them, and work with them for many weeks.... The most important bit of a ventilator set up is the nurse or respiratory technician
