Stroud Times was today sent a copy of a memo from an anonymous source that was alleged to have been given to staff at Ecotricity in Stroud.
In extracts from the leaked memo, founder Dale Vince wrote: “Hi Guys – Over the last few days I’ve been getting divorced – in the High Court in London – unfortunately.
“Much of what has been written in the press is historic rubbish – an attempt to portray me as someone I am not.”
Mr Vince claimed he was under pressure to sell the company but responded to staff: “I’m writing this to reassure you, in case you’d seen this and were worried – I have a fantastic legal team fighting this…
“Thank you all for your efforts on all fronts this year and to wish you all a great time over the break. See you in the New Year, where we can get on with the job of greening up Britain.”
Stroud Times has approached Ecotricity for a comment.
