how this charity wastes your donations how this charity wastes your donations. I've had 3 unwanted unneeded junk mail letters delivered by the Royal Mail this week through my letterbox. All exactly the same. All begging for money. All directly went into the blue waste paper bin to be recycled. I don't know if the Royal Mail get paid for doing this but its a waste of charity money, a waste of paper and its an invasion of my privacy. Unsolicited mail. No doubt I will get some more before Christmas.

Whitehaven shop Whitehaven shop, while purchasing items at the till , a ‘lady’ accused my wife and 10 year old daughter of shop lifting and asked to look in their bags. When proven innocent the member of staff offered no explanation or apology. In fact she was very rude to them. Why is it that these people who want to appear outwardly Christian cannot grasp the fundamentals of being Christian . I am disgusted.

I went on trustpilot to get reviews I went on trustpilot to get reviews for The Salvation Army with a view to donate on a monthly basis. I am in total shock. Previously I thought The Salvation Army was a wonderful charity and appeared to do much good for so many, but to read reviews and find that 80% of the reviews were one star is appalling and also upsetting. Has the Salvation Army ethos always been so dreadful or is it only recently that this terrible state of affairs has occurred. I have given money in the past on an ad hoc basis, but decided I wanted to give regularly every month, having read all these awful reviews, I will no longer consider donating any money to this charity.

FARNWORTH BRANCH VERY MISLEADING… Misleading website information on how they offer services to individuals within our community with special needs and disabilities. They advertise a service that DOES NOT EXIST. Also, they false advertise opening times of their coffee shop and charity shop. The charity shop doesn't even open on a Saturday. The Sally Army boast they serve their communities? Give the building and shop up and let someone run it who can provide community services to benefit our people. A waste of time.

No real compassion or understanding of my situation I contacted my local Salvation Army today in the hope of some help. I am 69, live on my own and only have state pension as income. I'm having to pay £482 monthly for external redecoration to my leasehold flat. I also have to pay £167 monthly service charge plus other priority bills etc. I also have 2 toilets that don't flush properly and I'm have to collect soiled toilet paper in plastic bags . No one should have to live like this. The Salvation Army said they couldn't help as they only do food parcels. They didn't even offer any advice and didn't seem to really care. They are supposed to be a Christian organisation but certainly didn't come across as very Christian
