Damage is done, hopefully in time they can recover from it but people have long memories and lots of other options.Dear David,
Thank you for getting in touch about our fundraising campaign, Meat Free March. We are sorry if it has caused upset as this was never our intention.
Macmillan’s sole purpose is to support people living with cancer to live life as fully as they can. Thousands of people living with cancer across the UK depend on our vital support services every day and we are only able to do this thanks to the ongoing generosity of our supporters.
Our supporters want a range of different and exciting ways to raise money for us, so we are constantly testing different campaigns and products to help people do this. However, if we believe it’s not the most effective use of our resources then we will always take the decision to stop an activity or event. For example, last year we trialled fundraising campaigns ‘Up All Night’ and ‘Milestone Moments’ but decided not to continue with them as they did not meet the targets we set.
Meat Free March is a one-month fundraiser aimed at those who enjoy meat, but who want to challenge themselves to go without it for a month to raise money for people with cancer. It’s not aimed at encouraging people to go meat free forever. The diet people follow is entirely a personal choice. Our only recommendation is that it’s balanced.
Meat Free March was first trialled at a small scale in 2019 and it yielded positive results for us, so we decided to repeat it in 2020.However, it has not brought in the number of registrations and won’t reach the projected income we expected so we will not be continuing to actively promote the event.
We can only be there for the growing number of people that urgently need our help thanks to the wide range of fundraising activities we offer. We are hugely grateful to every single person who raises money for us. Thanks to you, we can continue to be right there for people with cancer.
We really hope that this gives you the information you need and thank you again for letting us have your feedback.
Best wishes,
Helena Booth

So by saying they are no longer actively promoting it they are saying we're still doing it, just keeping a lower profile?
Just typical of a big charity. Becomes a trough for the snouts to forage in.I had a look at available jobs with Macmillan,20 posted only two were for nursing, the rest were Pr related,all with £40k plus wages.
Well their PR could certainly do with improving.I had a look at available jobs with Macmillan,20 posted only two were for nursing, the rest were Pr related,all with £40k plus wages.
At least you got a response. It is to be expected I'm not sure how much meat they think people eat I probably only eat one portion a day. We need to exercise more an cut out processed food .
Cant think of a month that goes with processed free though
I think they will be desperately thinking of ways to back down without losing face.
Today's Scottish Farmer has devoted its front page to the outrage it has generated.
