Thanks for joining the Save Our Bank campaign. This email is to bring you up to date, particularly in the aftermath of the announcements and extensive media coverage on Monday 4th.

 

There were some small encouraging signs however: in particular a commitment to conduct an ethical policy review and a suggestion that the Co-operative Group might increase its shareholding.

Since the campaign launched we have received many hundreds of comments and suggestions. You can read the campaign response to the announcements on the website here. Our focus is:

We continue to say: Don't switch yet, join our campaign

 

It's vital that we keep momentum. Our message has only got through to a small minority of our potential supporters. We've had media coverage, but not enough.

Please help by spreading the message. Ask friends, colleagues, family members to join the campaign. Anyone who cares that we have a different kind of bank that behaves ethically in the future.

Twitter users, please follow @saveourbank and #SaveOurBank. Publicise the saveourbank.coop address as much as possible.

Facebook users please like our Facebook page and share with your friends and followers. Ask them to join the campaign at saveourbank.coop
