Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Since we have been in lockdown there are so many children that are suffering in more ways than one.
As some parents struggle to buy daily essentials and are really beginning to feel the pandemic hit home. This extra stress, strain and pressure can have major affects on a parents mental health and research shows that all types of abuse and neglect are associated with poorer mental health.
With a 49% increase during the pandemic in calls to a national domestic abuse helpline and killings doubled in just a few weeks into lockdown. Many of these calls coming from homes with children in that are subject to see this, for some children school can be an escape.
An we feel we can try to ease these pressure by providing Families with essential kits containing the following:
Baking kits and recipes provided by local bakers in our area.
Activity packs to get children outdoors and learning,
Activitiy packs that can be used inside at home on rainy days.
Information to join live streams and get involved with a community of relatable people.
Sanitary products for females of the household. (we know how expensive these can be.)
A simple recipe guide with affordable recipes and simple things to cook.
Basic food essentials like Pasta, sauces and other food essentials that may be available.
We feel it is our responsibility to help in this situation and have a duty of care to our children and younger members of the community.
The N.S.M Foundation is all about inspiring our youth, helping them build confidence within themselves, encouraging them to build friendships and to experience success all whilst feeling supported by us as a foundation.
