else fails and he doesn’t reach bail, he therefore
implores you to help him by contributing towards
his bail.
All bail is raised in aid of the British Red Cross
and he would be very grateful if you would give
generously to this wonderful cause.
Donating through the Virgin Money Giving
accounts site is simple and secure. It is also the
most efficient way to sponsor him – the British
Red Cross will receive your money faster and, if
you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 25% in tax will
be added to your donation through the gift aid
system at no cost to you.

On the 8th September the Lord Mayor is going
to undertake one of the most frightening things
that could ever befall a Lord Mayor – he is going
to abseil down the Cheese Grater building (all
225 meters) and he is petrified of heights! He
is doing this to raise funds for his Lord Mayor’s
Appeal that will support the LSO Discovery
programme, St Paul’s Music Outreach and
Music in Hospitals, educating young people,
using music to develop the skills and talents
that young people need to succeed in 21st
century Britain.
He would really like you to sponsor him
BUT
PLEASE DO NOT SPONSOR HIM FOR MORE
THAN £10;
this is really important as he would
like to break some records (not any bones or
individual wallets) and he knows how generous
you are to so many charities. What he would
really like you to do is pass it on to 5 of your fellow
Freemen, Liverymen or friends; there are over
30,000 Liverymen – just imagine the funds he
could raise if they all donated £10! https://www.
