Your donation will be gratefully received no matter how small or big and if you gift aid it, that will be even better. The money we receive goes directly to the people in need without a middle person or administrative cost. In fact when the sterling is converted to local currency, it goes even further to buy the basic amenities such as food or winter bedding i.e blankets etc. Every little helps and it certainly puts a smile on the faces of those in need.
