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
So, here’s to 2026 and reaching many more people in need, partnering with many more churches, charities, foodbanks, debt centres, warm welcome spaces and more, and inviting more people to choose to give to Acts 435 and see their gift make a big difference. I hope you will continue to journey with us.

£200 needed for a washing machine
L is a single mum and full-time carer for her twenty two year old son who suffers with severe mental health, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and learning difficulties. Mum is in receipt of Universal Credit and Carer's Allowance. She has been renting a washing machine for eight years, but has got behind on payments and the company has called to collect the machine. L would be very grateful for any support we can give her.
£200 needed for a fridge freezer
L is a single mum and full-time carer for her twenty two year old son who struggles with severe mental health, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and learning difficulties. Mum is in receipt of Universal Credit and Carer's Allowance. She has been renting a fridge freezer from a company and has got behind on payments through financial difficulties. The company has called to remove the fridge freezer. L is in a desperate situation and would greatly appreciate any donations towards replacing this.
£120 needed for clothes
O is an asylum seeker who arrived in our area four weeks 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. O needs help to buy clothes as he doesn't have any, and would be very grateful for your support.
£200 needed for a washing machine
J has been homeless with his partner and sixteen year old son for a few months. They were given temporary housing for a couple of months and are now moving into a permanent home. This is such a relief, as the mental health of all of them was suffering, especially his son who couldn't cope living in a hotel room. They are currently out of work, as their jobs are seasonal, and so they have no money to rebuild their lives in a new home. Please could we help them with a washing machine as part of their rebuilding?
£200 needed for a lounge carpet
This single lady, who has learning difficulties, lives alone and manages quite well in normal circumstances; however, she has been targetted by local drug users and has been burgled by them several times. The council has now moved her to a new area, but her flat is in need of carpets. This lady would like to carpet the lounge and is happy to leave the hall and bedroom for now. Your help would be a great benefit to her, not only financially, but also emotionally.
£185 needed for a bed, mattress and delivery charge
D, who is on Universal Credit, has lived in his home for twenty five years. He has been having problems with his landlord who hasn't been keeping up with repairs. When D complained, he was given an eviction notice. This has been extremely unsettling and has caused a lot of stress. D has now got another property, but needs help with a bed as he is on a low income. This will really help to reduce the stress of the whole situation. The cost includes delivery.
£200 needed for a cooker and a fridge
K, a young man who has been homeless for the past seven years, suffers from anxiety and poor mental health. He attends a group that helps him, and he feels he is getting better. After years of sofa surfing and sleeping rough, K has now moved into a council flat and receives Universal Credit. He cooks on a two-ring hob and is uncomplaining, but would obviously benefit from some white goods. With K's small savings and your help, we would be able to purchase a reconditioned cooker and fridge.
£200 needed for a mobile phone, clothing, hygiene and food essentials
This single gentleman has been attending our addiction recovery group for many months and has finally made the courageous step to go to rehabilitation to recover from his addiction. He has no finances, due to losing his job recently, and we are looking for support to get him the essentials he needs to go on Friday. He needs a phone, clothing, hygiene and food essentials. This gentleman needs all the support he can get as he has no family or friends to support him, only those within the recovery community.
£200 needed for bedding and two rugs
K moved into her home last year, and we have supported her to get a bed and some household items. She is unable to work, due to having severe paranoid schizophrenia, and is currently receiving Universal Credit. K needs support to purchase a mattress protector, a duvet and pillows, duvet sets and sheets, as well as two rugs for rooms without adequate flooring. Please can you help?
