I've just corrected a typo and relevant link to Michelle's OBE - it said she was awarded one in 2006 when it should have said 2016 as per the references (which were correct). COI disclaimer: I work at CRUK - I hope these edits are taken as intended!
Is it fair to talk about her Salary maybe? Many consider it to be controversial in the UK. As Cancer research CEO she earned £244,000 "between April 2019 and March 2020" according to Cancer Research's own website (https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-us/our-organisation/how-we-spend-your-money#:~:text=Our%20CEO's%20salary&text=Our%20CEO%2C%20Michelle%20Mitchell%2C%20was,a%20complex%20organisation%20to%20lead.) Many consider this to be an obscene amount of money and call into question where there donations are sent. A section on her salary would seem relevant to many considering they assume their donations are sent towards institutions who research cancer instead of paying their CEO 1/4 of a million pounds per year. It seems like we don't want to acknowledge that a huge sum of money is paid to their executive staff.
