£165 needed for a skip
This single mum is struggling financially. Mum has had a hard time after a break down in her relationship with her recent boyfriend and it has caused her much stress. She has been told she must remove all the rubbish in the garden or she can be evicted as neighbours have complained about the smell. Her ex-boyfriend caused a lot of the rubbish but refused to move it. Mum has done some herself but it’s just to much to cope with. Can you help?

V has been referred to us by MacMillan Cancer Support as she has been diagnosed with lung cancer. She is a single mum to a 15 year old girl and life has been hard the last few weeks. Due to her health, she has moved properties to somewhere that is more manageable. The new house has no carpets and V can't afford to buy them.

Praying a kind donor will help her.
