Contact: We very much hope that you can attend the launch of new research which explores the harms caused to customers of Farepak the Christmas hamper company. The research has been jointly commissioned by the Centre for Crime and Justice Studies, Kings College, and registered charity UNISON Welfare and led by Dr Basia Spalek of the University of Birmingham. The 150,000 savers have endured emotional as well as financial costs but one year on they are still awaiting justice and proper compensation. The event brings together politicians and representatives of relevant agencies and Farepak savers themselves. The full report and the executive summary will be available on our website on 19 November 2007.

Location: Committee Room 16 House of Commons, 2pm to 4pm - all welcome

Speakers: Richard Garside (CCJS), Dr. Basia Spalek (University of Birmingham), Anne Snelgrove MP, Julie Grant (UNISON Welfare), Farepak savers
