The campaign to save Lloyds TSB Foundation for Scotland has stepped up a few gears.
A petition to the UK Government has now been launched – please sign it.
Sir Tom Farmer, one of Scotland’s best known philanthropists, has spoken publicly of his support for the Foundation and its work. And has called on Lloyds banking group to honour the covenant which guarantees all the Foundations’ funding and independence.
