	Diana Garnham, The charity sector and the healthcare research agenda
		Charities can also only fund the area of research described in their objects so if it is a cancer charity it makes no difference that you or I, or the NHS, might want them to fund some other research which we consider a higher priority.
		Charities predominantly fund research in response to applications for support and the funding they provide is most often a partnership with government funding streams.
		And finally, the charity sector is largely responsive to and dependent upon public donations and wider public support to maintain its income and to encourage scientific interest in their area of research.

	Paddington as the Mascot for Action Medical Research
		Paddington’s involvement with Action Medical Research goes all the way back to 1976 when a chance meeting took place between Paddington’s creator Michael Bond and the charity’s founder, Duncan Guthrie who asked whether, through Paddington, Michael Bond could offer his support to the charity.
		However, when he started to hear about the work of Action Medical Research he suddenly became very interested because here was a charity that really did help a huge range of people, not just the old or the young but anyone who already suffered or potentially might suffer from any number of diseases or disabilities.
		However, although "Paddington's Action Club" no longer exists, Paddington's involvement is now greater than it's ever been and, as the charity's official mascot, he appears at fundraising events up and down the country.
