Fw: : Cherie Blair and Childrens cancer charity in Australia

[Guest guest]

I am looking to widen circulation of such emails and would appreciate

details of other larger groups that I can routinely copy in on this

correspondence. Our aim is to encourage Cherie Blair to set an example and

to assist the Australian children's cancer charity without taking the

£100,000 personal fee that appears to be demanded.

 

Thanks

 

Ian
