£100 needed for equine therapy

These loving grandparents have recently been awarded the care of their two primary-aged grandchildren and their 17 year old sister. After continual disruption caused by their parents' drug use, the 17 year old girl had tried to take her life twice. She is now, thankfully, more settled and studying at a local college. The local Parent Support Worker would love her to undertake an equine therapy course at a local centre staffed by qualified counsellors/ therapists. Could you help please?

£80 needed for moving costs

Amazingly A has found a cheap rental house to move to in Exeter, despite having poor credit, but she has no funds to pay for a man/van to move the larger items to their new home and needs to do so at the beginning of January. She's a single mum with 4 daughters, and although she recently went debt free working with Christians Against Poverty her budget is limited. I'm so hopeful we can help her.
