SACKED

sorry if I'm in the wrong section for advice
Long story short
My wife has worked at the same post office for 24 years never had a problem.
couple of weeks ago she worked a Saturday by herself. she returned to work on the Tuesday to walk in to an audit.
The audit found her money to be £2,200 short. she went back to work on the Thursday and the post master suspended her pending an investigation.
The investigation was carried out and the Post office advised the post master to terminate her employment.
On the Saturday my wife worked her money was correct when she closed the post office.
We now know that on the same day the post master entered the premises to work on the alarm. My wife's money/takings were not kept in a sealed unit.
She was sacked for false declaring.
In the last few days the post office has had another audit and it has been closed the post master also had another post office and that to has been closed after a 2nd audit. Both are still closed.
We are both sure that what has happened to my wife is totally unfair and completely wrong.
We are also looking in to unfair dismissal as he was totally out of procedure but with the post office advising she be sacked were bit unsure who to put the unfair dismissal claim against
