I was the Secretary of the Hyndburn Branch of the National Asthma Campaign (now Asthma UK)for 4 years, It actually cost me money has it as for every charity I have been invoved. We raised money for a verity of projects, but I did get fed up off rules had regs we had to adher to, especially when I recieved the balance sheet each year, and saw the sararies of centra office staff.
