my organisation (charity providing social services) has RBS executives on the board of directors. Odd I know but I got thinking about how much damage has been done to organisations like charities and wonder, would there be a good case to take the likes of RBS to court for damages?

Also, what's the name of your organisation?

Strangely, the only SPECTRE that is registered with the Charity Commission hasn't operated since 1992. Confused

I take it your charity employer hasn't given you a pay rise then? If the sole purpose of a charity is to benefit the cause, how exactly did the credit crunch affect your charity?

As far as I know, the only bank that affected UK savers was Icebank.


Charities don't have some single purpose. They're like any other organisation with a range of liabilities and responsibilities. Most charities that deliver community based social services are publicly funded in the main by local authorities. As a result of the financial crises austerity measures have cut funding massively and a lot of services have had to shut down. Some organisations have had to withdraw completely from providing services.

So they're being treated just like every other public service?

Am still interested to know the registered name (or the number would be equally helpful) of your charity because it would add a lot context to what's being discussed.

Surely any damage from budget cuts is done to those who the charity supports as opposed to the charity itself?

Primarily the staff in this instance by the sound of things. This may explain the OPs interest. Definitely sounds
like someone trying to get more for themselves but disguising that sentiment as 'concern' for the wider organisation.

No its a simple question about banks liability for damages caused by their negligence.

Damage to who?

Why should charities not be treated just like every other public service?

And what's the relevance of having RBS executives on your board of directors?

Ok not just charities anyone or any organisation that can trace damage back to the banks responsible for the financial crisis.

I sometime wonder which side of this charity you are on. Service provider or service user?

Ok I think this thread is thoroughly derailed. Well done boys, it was a simple question about suing large corporations whether by a single organisation or individual or class action by several or many organisations or individuals.

It's not derailed, people have asked various questions to try and understand the situation and you've not given any answers.

You can't expect anyone to be able to offer any type of helpful answer when you're so secretive with relevant details.

Well lets be honest, if there was any seriousness behind the question you'd be talking to a solicitor, not asking for the opinions of a forum that has a feline/phallus combo as its mascot. Rolling Eyes

If seven years after the financial crisis someone dousent understand the relevence of the question then they're not really going to have anything helpful to say.

Anyway as far as I'm concerned the threads dead.

Everyone understands your question and everyone needs more detail to be able to give an answer that's of any use.

From what little you've said, rather obviously the answer is NO because of how vague the question is and how little detail is provided.

How unwilling you are to answers questions says quite a lot about you. Wink

Yeah I'm not daft enough to give out personal details on the internet.

End of the thread as far as I'm concerned.
