Poll suggests most people oppose paying charity trustees

Poll suggests most people oppose paying charity trustees: More than half of Britons are against paying charity trustees, research released today by nfpSynergy suggests.

The poll of 1,000 people was conducted in November. According to the results, only 14 per cent of respondents thought trustees should be paid, whereas 54 per cent were against paying trustees. This was made up of 29 per cent who said they "definitely should not be paid" and 25 per cent who said they "probably" should not receive salaries.
