No email service, unfortunately.
Order online (£11) and receive by post:

For certain years you can get a PDF cert emailed - but not 1920. And only births and deaths.


I suppose you could contact Chorlton registry office direct, and ask if they can help. You never know!

The birth record for Sydney (note - not Sidney) born Chorlton, posted by Maddie, doesn't look like the right one:


EDIT: Oops, I see you've deleted it already, Maddie!


[ I've now deleted parents' marriage, censuses, Sydney's marriage, etc proving it.]
