Aim

We've met our initial goal of £7,855 and are now asking for help to get our story on the biggest media platforms worldwide.


UPDATE: Thanks to the incredible generosity of so many supporters, we have now raised the £7,855 needed to cover the filing fee for our landmark UK Supreme Court case.

We’re now aiming to raise an additional £6,000 so that the organization supporting our effort, the International Center for 9/11 Justice, can hire two publicists — one in the UK and one in the US — to ensure our case receives the international media coverage it deserves across both legacy and alternative outlets.

Reaching audiences worldwide is essential not only in its own right, but also for helping raise the substantial funds that will be required for legal fees and potential liabilities (i.e., the UK government’s legal costs if we lose) as the Supreme Court hearing approaches.

Please give what you can to help share our story globally and put us in a position to raise the considerable funds that will be needed for our landmark case.

On 19th November we were granted permission to appeal our case to the UK Supreme Court, which is the highest court in Britain. There we will argue that the attorney general is not above the law and his decision to refuse our application for a fresh inquest into Geoff’s death on 9/11 should be subject to judicial review.

This is our family’s best chance to secure a proper investigation into the death of our beloved Geoff, who was killed at the World Trade Center on 9/11. After four years of battling the attorney general, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear our case — a historic step that could finally allow us to present the scientific evidence of controlled demolition that was never examined at the original inquest in 2013.

Why This Matters

In 2013, the inquest into Geoff’s death and that of nine other British victims lasted less than two hours and relied solely on a one-page police summary. It did not examine the cause of death or the evidence pointing to explosive demolition.

In 2021, our family submitted over 2,500 pages of expert analysis and witness testimony to the attorney general under Section 13 of the Coroners Act 1988, seeking a fresh inquest. That request was unlawfully denied.

In July, the High Court accepted that our evidence was extensive and compelling but ruled that — due to outdated legal precedent — the attorney general’s refusal was beyond judicial review. Only the Supreme Court has the power to change that.

A Landmark Case for Justice

The Supreme Court will now consider, for the first time, whether the attorney general’s refusal to allow a new inquest can be challenged in court. If successful, this case will not only pave the way for a full inquest into Geoff’s death — it could set a critical precedent for families across the UK seeking fresh inquests into the deaths of their loved ones. No longer will the attorney general’s decisions be above the law.

We have fought for over two decades for Geoff’s death to finally be investigated properly — and we’ve come too far to fall at this hurdle.
