I'm not sure if I'm allowed to raise awareness of a specific charity. I would hope I can.

I spotted some comments on my LinkedIn feed which lead me to this post.

Billy Abernethy-Hope was a 20 year old ambulance driver. He died in a motorcycle accident whilst on holiday.

It's a very small charity. There don't appear to be highly paid executives.

It should be noted that BillyChip, http://www.billychip.com, is not a charity, it is a Community Interest Company.

The differences between the two structures are explained at https://makeanimpactcic.co.uk/2018/02/whats-the-difference-between-a-cic-and-a-charity/, however the most obvious one from a donors point of view is that donations to CICs don't qualify for Gift Aid.

Also associated is the B A Hope Foundation, informally the BillyChip Foundation, which is a charity. https://bahopefoundation.com/
