Is anyone here getting any help from NAS ?

Paull

Does anyone here get actually get any help from NAS ?

My experience is you ask for help and they send you a bucketload of PDF'S of other organisations. Am I wrong to have expected more ?

The chief executive gets paid 140 grand a year, is it right that someone can live in luxury on that kind of salary from charitable donations ? Not even counting the other 20 people on stupid salaries comes to over 2 million quid ...no doubt plus expenses.

I thought charities existed to help others but obviously they are more interested in helping themselves.

  • The NAS is a fake charity. The fact that nearly 90% of it's income stream comes from the taxpayer means that it might as well be an outpost of the government rather than a charity. If the government is willing to spend money on ASD services then why on earth can't they use their official channels of the NHS, state education, and councils rather than a registered charity?

    The salaries that several senior officials receive is absolutely obscene. I do not feel that anybody working full time for a charity should receive above £35k and that's being generous.
