Total needed £200My client has finally reached out to Christians Against Poverty, following a traumatic bereavement and expected death. This has resulted in her putting her head in the sand and the debts escalating. No matter how many extra hours she works, my client cannot clear the debts. She works very hard in a care home and is putting effort and time into helping those in need. It would be amazing to bless her too. Our client often goes without to give to her grandchildren. Please can you help?
