How it works
100% of your donation goes to the recipient's need and you receive a thank you update when the need has been met
A local church or charity becomes an Acts 435 partner
Partners post urgent needs on behalf of people in their community
Donors read stories of need and give through the Acts 435 platform
Partner contacts person in need and gives the item so desperately needed
It's meant that he can stay warm without worrying about high heating bills and without worrying about filling up a hot water bottle that's only going to warm up one small area at a time. It's safer for him as well.

£200 needed for a fridge freezer
M is a single lady living in a council bungalow. She is a long-term cancer sufferer and spent nine months in hospital last year. She is unable to work and receives Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payments. M's fridge freezer has stopped working and is beyond repair. She needs it not just for storing food but also for her medications. M is unable to afford a replacement herself so if you are able to help with this purchase, that would be brilliant. Thank you.
£150 needed for a television
We have met a young care experienced person who has moved into his new property, is currently on his own for the first time in a while and is struggling with this. His television is currently broken and he would really appreciate having a new one to provide some distraction while he builds his independent life and tries to make his flat a home.

£200 needed for a refurbished laptop
H is an asylum seeker who arrived in our area four months ago, having left his family in Syria, and receives £9 per week in financial support. This client has engaged with our organisation, attending different activities such as English language classes, chess club and lunch, sport and cultural events each week. R needs help to buy refurbished laptop to practice his English as he doesn't have any English, and would be very grateful for your support.
£130 needed for a laptop
We are supporting a man from Afghanistan who is seeking asylum here. He has a background in civil engineering and it would be a great help to him if he could have a laptop to help him learn English and practice his civil engineering studies. A laptop would enable him to run civil engineering programmes and do construction drawings digitally. His hope, as he looks to establish himself in this new country, is to get a job in construction. The gift of a laptop would give him a real lift.
£200 needed for a professional decluttering service
We are supporting a mum of three who is completely overwhelmed to free up some space in her head and home to be able to focus on her children. Mum struggles with her mental health which can result in clutter taking over. She is on a waiting list with a local charity to help; however, after two years is still nowhere near the top. We would like to provide six hours of professional decluttering help, allowing her to clear the living room, kitchen and hallway so the family has a space it can enjoy together.
£200 needed for food, toiletries, nappies and clothing
This single mum has been left short due to her children's father not paying the last two months worth of Child Maintenance payments. This has meant a substantial loss of income and mum is struggling to make ends meet. With the weather starting to warm up, the children are also in need of some suitable clothes, but mum has no spare funds at all. Could you possibly help this family with a voucher for food, essentials and clothing please whilst she gets help to re-budget on a reduced income?
£200 needed for a basic laptop
J is trying to study English and improve his computer skills. He is really keen to develop beyond basic computer use to have a chance at teaching himself coding to an employable level. J is putting a lot of time into studying, but is limited because he can't access a computer outside of library times and a limited time in college. He moved to the UK as a young adult and has no formal qualifications here so a laptop would significantly improve his job seeking chances and opportunities for the future.
