Please sign up for the 'Cash back for Christie Campaign'
Cash back for Christie The Manchester Evening News campaign is calling for the government to help secure the return of our charity’s £6.5 million that was lost in the Icelandic banking collapse.
The Financial Services Compensation Scheme has turned down our charity's claim for the money after the collapse of the UK regulated bank Kaupthing Singer and Friedlander, and our charity is fighting this decision through the High Court.
The Manchester Evening News is planning to take their petition to the Prime Minister which demands that the Financial Services Compensation Scheme reimburses us.
You can sign the Manchester Evening News petition online - or complete this form.
Thank you for your valued support.
