Charity fundraiser rule change

Chairites in the business center U.K now face a barage of rules to follow, and if any of these are breached the charity may be fined at least £1,000. offices

The rules restrict the street fundraisers from following a person for more than 3 steps, which is actually probably welcome, as sometimes, charity fundraisers can be a bit overzealous, when it comes to the aqcusition of funds.

The scheme is being introduced after a year long trial, the enforcing body will be the Public Fundraising Regulatory Association (PFRA).

The new regime means that street fundraisers must not stand within 3m of a shop doorway, cashpoint, pedestrian crossing or station entrance. Which is probably a good thing again as these areas could maybe guilt trip someone into giving funds away when they had no original intention of doing so.

They are also not allowed to sign up anyone to a direct debit, who is unabe to give informed consent, ie someone who is taking drink/ drugs or disabled.

They are also unable to approach members of the public who are working.

 

Nigerian app market

The app market business centre in Nigeria may seem a little strange when you compare it to the market over in the western nations. Over here the norm is for a lrger amount of free apps, with in-app advertising or paid for features, this has been concluded as the best model to follow with your app. However, in Nigeria it appears that paid for apps seem to hold a lot of bouyancy over there, they have $10 apps at the top of their download charts, service office they also appear to adore the scriptures of christianity and islam, with 'Message Bible' being launched at relatively the same time as Angry Birds, in Nigeria message bible was a smash hit, reaching no.15 top grossing apps on the Iphone, in the USA however, it didn't even reach 600.

Popular Nigerian apps are expensive, costing around $10, 'QuickOffice Pro' made the top ten and it cost $15. Comparing their market to the USA's, in the USA, 9/10 top apps are free. Why is this? Is it because that most iphones bought in Nigeria are by rich people, yet in America, see more everyone seems to have one? Could it be because it may work out cheaper in the long run, ie. A Nigerian may buy a bible and scriptures for around $100, or they could buy the app for $10.

One thing which could be true, is the slim demographic in which the Nigerian app market is propped up by, it appears that it is a small few who are purchasing these apps, maybe suggesting they are affluent people willing to purchase expensive apps.

The train.

Richard Branson, boss of Virgin, which I'm sure you knew. business centre Well, Richard Branson has lost his bid to continue running the west coast mainline in the UK, it's contract will be going to FirstGroup, the small office space apparently largest rail operator here.

They have released statements suggesting that they will be "offering substantial improvements in the quality and frequency of services". rent office Which is hardly suprising, I'd be more intruiged if I heard they were downgrading the quality of the service and they were going to make sure the trains were late. Richard Branson has also said that this is 'very dissapointing news', which I hate to say, but thats kind of obvious as he had just lost a part of his business. I'd be surprised if he said he was ecstatic at the news.

Anyway, unions and rail compaigners haver argued jobs will be cut, fares will rise and catering services will be cut back. office space Well, aren't people employed if they are needed? so as such if there was any need for cuts it's because it wouldn't of been running efficiently? Therefore in turn this should reduce fares? You'd hope anyway.

FirstGroup, which is based in Aberdeen, already operate a variety of networkds including Great Western and ScotRail.

office hire

The company, under the name First West Coast Limited, will take over the franchise from 9 December and is due to to operate the service until 2026.
