This is a genuine request.
I am wanting to gather any details of charities that support families financially to give kids a treat after suffering hardship etc.
Dont want to go into details on here but aware of a family who have lost mum and dad leaving 2 children, would love to put them in touch with a charity who could help them with the cost of a holiday or some treats for the children, or apply on there behalf.
Do you know any that I could contact?
I have contacted SAAFI to see if they can signpost me but thought maybe some of you SF'ers may have some experience or knowledge-this really would be appreciated and I can let you know how I get on
thankyou,
mumsy xx

Hi. There's a Charity called the Family Fund. You could google them and they may be able to help. Otherwise, there's a site called Turn2Us, which gives advice on benefits and grants available; they have a huge database which you can search through yourself, or you can call tham for free. Good luck

That's Life! magazine have this kind of donation if it's chosen and printed in the mag. They'll pay up to £1000 for families in need of a boost.
