Sorry about the font size -

figured but couldn't resist Sorry

British Heart Foundation: 26.2p charitable activities, 40.6p fundraising, and 33.2p generating income.

This ^^^ is disgusting & they should be investigated, from https://www.bhf.org.uk/-/media/files/what-we-do/bhf-annual-report-and-accounts-2019.pdf?la=en

"Our Chief Executive’s total remuneration was
£211,105 in 2018-19. This included a salary of
£183,475 together with the effect of an election
to receive an additional cash payment in lieu
of employer pension contributions. His salary
is below the median for the charity sector,
according to Third Sector’s 2018 survey of
executive pay. This survey also identified the
BHF as the 17th largest charity by income, but
only the 54th by salary for the highest paid
employee."

Might sound like a daft question but, what's the difference between fundraising and generating income?

Not daft at all, I'd like to know it as well, to me they are both the same, bother referring to the amount skimmed off the top, what I would also like to know is if they engage a company £100K for a promised return of £400K which number do they account, £300 or 400K

This listing of charity CEO pay for some of the biggest organizations is from 2015 - five years ago. None of them earned less than £230,000 p.a. even then.

Let me investigate for you.

Truth to tell it wasn't very difficult, as you've provided the raw material and all I had to do was flick through it until I found this:

The figures @Beebo provided are misleading. Probably because the denominator includes all sources of income, including commercial income. If your business model includes having a large commercial subsidiary providing commercial services - such as paid-for events - which themselves generate a profit - it will appear that you spend a lot on admin. And if you invest quite a lot of your income for the long term it could look even higher.

Thanks srw- that is reassuring... pleased to see that research continues to be well funded which was my biggest concern. We've supported BHF for many years including 2 house clearances and regular donations to, and purchases from, BHF shops.
