It’s now £153,000!!!

Thank you for the link.
I will share this.
A worthy cause.

I think I’d like to know where and how the money is going to be spent before donating. Is it a registered charity are there trustees?

There are tens of thousands aren't there. I'm sure a fiver will solve all their problems. Still I'm sure he'll love polishing his halo.

You can of course Google the charity to see what it's doing.

I think it's quite small from what little I've read - but it does pay one trustee for services.

I for one trust these two people 100%, they have worked tirelessly for the victims of this horrendous crime. People like Maggie Oliver should be up an award, she is a true heroine.
Patrick has also raised a lot of money to help people that have had the WFA removed.

That’s not nice!

The truth often isn't.

Your post can easily be applied to any charity anywhere in the world.

I assume you are not in favour of charities and the excellent work they do…

Over £200,000 now. Maggie Oliver Foundation has done so much for these poor girls and will continue to do so. Really worth reading the Charity Commission reports on here. 👍

what a wonderful thing to do, Patrick is such a kind and thoughtful person.

What an unpleasant post!

Yes Patrick Christys can polish his halo, below is a list of his charitable achievements.

In June 2023, he performed with the Dreamboys[12] to raise awareness of men's mental health, generating over £110,000 in donations for mental health charity Mind.[13]

In November 2023, Christys raised over £270,000 for the Royal British Legion as part of its Poppy Appeal.[14]

In November 2024, Christys raised £407,000 (£71,236 of that in Gift Aid) for UK charity Friends of the Elderly.

over £201,000 now

Thanks for the link Primrose. I have donated and am thankful that at last this charity is getting the attention it deserves

Himself was telling me about this last night. He was watching GBNews as Patrick launched his appeal and said he was amazed at how quickly and spontaneously viewers and listeners responded.

I really like Patrick. He’s a good soul with a kind heart.

Charlie Peters, a young GBnews journalist, has been outstanding in raising awareness of these awful gangs of primitive men. He has worked tirelessly

It’s a nice idea but what those women really need is the knowledge that what happened to them isn’t going to continue to happen unhampered to other girls and that all the perpetrators are brought to justice.

So counselling would not help?

Many kind people quietly support those in need ,day in day out.

The Maggie Oliver foundation is for all women who have survived sexual abuse and exploitation, which includes both gangs and family and individual abuse and exploitation.

It's not specifically for one group as seems to have been suggested in the O/P

Quote from one of their caseworkers illustrating the breadth of their work

From Maya, one of the case workers on the site:

"My passion is driven through my lived experience as a CSA Survivor.

I gained national media attention and recognition when I waived my lifelong anonymity in September 2018, exposing the serial sexual abuse at the hands of my father, during his release from prison after serving just 6 years of his 10-year sentence".

So a worthwhile move, alongside as Oreo suggested, a better success rate for girls and women currently at risk, implementing the 2022 report.
