Military Charities Get Funding From Banks
The outgoing Chancellor, George Osborne, has announced that nine charities, including a cause supported by the late Jo Cox MP, will receive over £14 million in funding.
Mr Osborne said it is right that funding from those in the banking industry who demonstrated the worst of values goes towards people who display the very best.
The funding comes from fines levied on the banking industry for manipulating the LIBOR rate and will include £375,000 for the Royal Voluntary Service - one of the causes backed by the Jo Cox memorial fund.
