Just read the posting in the news section what a great idea however if it has just completed its first year why is this the first time I have heard of it ?

How about a section on the subscriptions renewal form for members to donate to the benevolent fund.

If 27,000 members donated at least £1 that would be err over £27,000 for the fund.

For persons like me, that never knew about it, click "news centre" to the left of the screen.

I thought there was provision on the annual subscription form for the benevolent fund?

I thought the IOSH benevolent fund was the ridiculously high prices they charge for their courses and exams.

Annual Subscription Invoices DO provide the option for a member to donate to the Benevolent Fund and we have had some very substantial donations from some individuals for which we are extremely grateful.

Every member had a leaflet concerning the new fund when we distributed the information pack, last year, together with a copy of the Royal Charter.

I can confirm that the IOSH Benevolent Fund has been publicised via the SHP, the web-site, the Branch Officials' Conference etc and that a leaflet explaining the role of the Fund is included with all new member packs. I can also confirm that the annual subscription renewal slip has included a section for donations to the Fund for the last two years, and that an explanatory leaflet has also been included in the renewal packs and envelopes.

Hazel,

I know they don't and neither do Carling but if they did they would probably be the best exams in the world.

Having a bit of light hearted banter.

Warning, being with IOSH may affect your sense of humour.

Paul,

That would be Carlsberg, not Carling
