How to complain

Many complaints can be resolved informally. In the first instance contact All Good Causes Limited by email: complaints@localgoodcauses.org.

If you are not satisfied or do not wish for an informal solution, you may pursue a formal complaint. Write down your complaint and send it to:

Complaints
All Good Causes Limited,
Highgate House,
134 Highgate,
Kendal
LA9 4HL

What happens Next?

You will receive acknowledgement of your complaint within 5 working days. We may contact you to make sure that we have understood your complaint properly.

You will receive a response to your complaint within 28 working days of its receipt. Any extension of this time limit requires your consent.

In all cases, a complaint will be given full and fair consideration. However, if as a result of your complaint, disciplinary proceedings are taken against a member of staff, an internal procedure will apply. You will be informed that disciplinary proceedings have taken place, but as these proceedings are confidential, you will only be informed of the details or outcome of matters outside of this procedure.

If a criminal offence is alleged, then the police will be informed.

What to do if you’re dissatisfied with the outcome?

If you’re unhappy with the way that we deal with your complaint please contact your local Trading Standards office for further advice.
