What are your views on TV Charity Begging Adverts?I agree with you Madam Didymus - I do turn away from these ads also. Not because I don't believe in the various charities, but I just get so tired of it. If I wanted to donate, then I would. I don't need an ad to make me feel sad, so therefore, I'll contribute. That's annoying and somehow disingenuous. When I worked and had more income, I gave to many causes. Now that I have much less money to work with, I have to be very careful. When I've donated in the past, the charity either sells or gives (probably sells) my information to other charities and I get flooded with mail requests, and I don't appreciate that at all!
