Story

The expense of Christmas and the cost of living crisis make January and February so challenging. Following the success of last year's Kick Start campaign we want to be able to support 100 families by giving them a £25 supermarket voucher.

We know that £25 will not solve people's financial worries but it will help parents to buy fresh food, or essentials like nappies and milk and when times are tough every little really does help.

Words from a Mum who received support last year:

"We are so grateful to receive the voucher for Morrisons. It was really unexpected - to be honest I had a little cry. It is so difficult juggling everything at this time of year. After the expense of Christmas, we were really struggling and knew that there was not enough money to cover all our bills. We are not a family who would ask for help but to be given it was amazing! Just to know that other people are that kind is very overwhelming - thank you".

Together, we can make a meaningful difference. From our homes to theirs, let's Kick Start a brighter year!

About the charity

Being a parent, can be very challenging. Many parents feel exhausted and overwhelmed by the stresses of family life. For some it’s a struggle because they are also coping with issues such as post-natal depression, their own or their child’s illness or disability, isolation or multiple births. We Help!
