Bono sorry over bullying claims at charity One

Former employees of a scandal-hit charity founded by U2 singer Bono have warned that more serious revelations of mismanagement and bullying have yet to be made public.

Bono apologised after a UK newspaper revealed former staff of the One charity were suing for physical and psychological distress caused by a former executive, and inaction by management on their complaints.

One’s chief executive, Gayle Smith, released a statement in which she stressed the issues were “historic” and were being addressed through changes to personnel and policy.
