About the appeal

Coronavirus has affected us all but for families just managing to keep their heads above water, the crisis brings a new wave of pressure. With your help, we can provide vital support to families across Elmbridge who have been hardest hit by the pandemic.

“Today I received £150 of Tesco vouchers and I’m yet to stop the grateful tears from falling. I honestly don’t know what I would of done if it wasn’t for amazing people like yourselves working tirelessly to help families like mine. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!” A local mum

With the money raised so far, we have been able to provide emergency grants to local schools, family centres and directly to families to help cover essential costs like food, gas and electricity, and school uniforms but we are seeing more and more families struggling to stay afloat. Parents who have lost some or all of their income, young people struggling with their mental health and children missing vital teaching time at school.

We must continue to pull together to help families across Elmbridge through this crisis.

Donate now and we will match every donation £1 for £1. Together, we can make D-O-U-B-L-E the difference to our local community.
