Can anyone tell me more about CIN and Mermaids please? As in do CIN give money to them? I'm sure I've read somewhere that they do in which case I do not want to support CIN and will give to individual children's charities that aren't involved in the trans agenda instead.

CIN fund Mermaids, but no longer fund Glasgow Rape Crisis because they are for women and girls over 13 years old.

They refused to renew funding to Glasgow rape crisis, allegedly because they are women only.

I am not giving any more donations to Children in Need until it is clear that they dont support Mermaids

There's some uniform thing at my daughter's school. She won't be taking part and won't mind as she is very firm in her beliefs on trans-ing children.

They will get £2 from me for the children’s non uniform day but I will probably make a bigger donation to a different charity to offset it iyswim

Yes they do. I wont be funding them this year. I'll choose my own charity. One that promotes child safeguarding.

BBC children in need pages have links to a spreadsheet that I can’t read that apparently lists all charities supported up to end 2015

Yes they do fund mermaids and this is also why my money is going to other charities, the most they’re getting from me this year is the £1 the kid has to pay for mufti day, but that’s about her not feeling left out.
