Website JustGiving will pocket at least £390,000 in fees as a result of charitable donations following recent terrorist attacks and the Grenfell Tower fire.
More than £7.8m has been raised via the website following the attacks in Manchester, London Bridge and Westminster, and the Grenfell Tower fire. The latter catastrophe resulted in the website breaking its one-day record for donations received.
JustGiving takes 5pc of any fee donated - more than twice the fees of some riv...al donor sites - meaning it will take at least £390,000 in fees from these four incidents.
Following the Manchester bombings a JustGiving page set up by the Red Cross raised £1.5m and one from the Manchester Evening News raised £2.5m. After the Westminster attacks £736,000 was raised for PC Keith Palmer, killed in the terrorist attack.
Just over £230,000 was raised for the London Bridge victims, after the terrorist attacks earlier this month. So far £2.9m has been raised for the Grenfell Tower fire from various fundraising pages on JustGiving - and this sum is still rising.
