Letter to the I: Royal Exploitation of Charities


Mary Hopkins' letter completely missed the point with regards to Prince Harry's apparent advocacy of the cause of treating mental illnesses.  She takes it for granted that the Royal's relationships with charities are one way supportive relationships.  It is not since Royals need the charities more than the charities need them.  Royal support often does not go beyond a visit to the charities, which imposes a cost on them, and brief supportive mentions and photo opportunities.  Would it be too much to ask for Royals instead of collecting charities, to actually sustain support in terms of time and  money into one of them?  Would it also be asking too much for Prince Harry to consider what credibility he has in talking about strained public services, while he lives a taxpayer funded lavish lifestyle?
