Give to someone in need
Acts 435 is about giving to people directly, to help them bridge the gap when they are facing a financial crisis.
Can you help a specific person in need?
Read stories of the applicants below and give as you feel able. Any amount will make a big difference to someone who is struggling.
You can instead make a general donation and the Acts 435 team will allocate it to the most urgent requests.
G has had help previously from Acts 435, enabling her to travel and park at the specialist children's hospital where her daughter needs specialist care which is some distance away. G realises there is a limit to the help Acts 435 can give, but would be grateful if £60 for two more appointments could be provided.
Still £60 left to donate
Total needed £60S, who receives Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment, has been living in a first floor council flat. The last few years have been filled with many hospital admissions, some lasting for over a month, which have created mobility issues for S. Her flat cannot be adapted so she has had to source other accommodation. S has secured a tenancy with Anchor Housing in a retirement village where her needs will be supported. Any Acts 435 donations towards the removal costs will help her financially.
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200A has a fifteen year old son in hospital, following cardiac surgery. Her journey to visit him costs £13.50 a day by train and bus. She has three other children and cannot work, due to illness and mental health struggles caused by domestic violence. A is having to manage on a low income and is using the local foodbank. Her move to Universal Credit will take five weeks. £200 will pay for two weeks more visits. Thank you.
