Story

On 9th October I will be abseiling down the Northampton Lift Tower. It is 400ft and the tallest permanent abseil tower in the world!

With me working within Action for Children I get to see first hand how much funds are needed throughout our services. Throughout 2020/2021 we supported over 600,000. Action for Children are continuing to give much needed support and help to those that need it the most during the Covid pandemic. 

£10 could pay for a child to have healthy breakfasts and lunches for a week.   

£15 could pay for a day’s breakfast, lunch, dinner and essential toiletries for a young person in emergency
accommodation.
 

£15 could buy mental health journals for 10 young people, helping them to express their feelings
through writing.
 

£20 could pay for a month’s worth of nappies and wipes for a baby or toddler. 

£40 could buy new school uniforms for two children. 

£50 could provide an emergency food package for two
families in crisis.  
 

£75 could pay for a family’s gas and electricity for three weeks,
helping them to keep their home warm and cook hot meals.
 

£100 could buy a bed for a child who doesn’t have a comfortable place
to sleep.    
 

£150 could pay for a weekly food shop for a family worried about feeding
their children. 
 

£200 could buy a cooker for a family so they
can make healthy meals. 
 

£500 could provide an immediate grant to two families who need urgent
help to cover the
costs of essentials like food, bills or baby items.
