Re: Thyroid Demonstration Committee

[Guest guest]

HI SHEILA

I have applied to join the DEMO GROUP, and would be willing to donate £100 and

this does not come easy being on benefits and struggling to pay for medication.

I don't have a TV or car and neither do I smoke or drink, and clothes are

usually second hand.

If I can donate for our cause then those that waste money on things as mentioned

could dispense with these luxuries especially those that in turn are damaging

their health further.

They cannot expect others to donate money when they are spending money on

cigarettes and alcohol to fight for them.

How much can those that smoke or drink save by not smoking or drinking, and to

give up the TV for a year would easily save £100.

Some have need of a car, but there are others who could dispense with it and

this would easily save a £100 and a lot more.

I hope I have bought forth some ideas to raise money for the TPA to fight for

us.

HI SHEILA

I do not earn enough to pay tax, so would not able to boost the value of my

donation. I will send you a donation and await to see if this DEMO progresses

into a DEMO before donating £100, but if it does go ahead I would be prepared to

donate it.

Is the conference going to be at Birmingham this year, but I feel that Skipton

was a lovely venue and place, and may I say " OH FOR THE YORKSHIRE DALES "

you would want this to go particularly towards the cost of a demonstration?
