Story

Homelessness charity Thames Reach is calling on the general public to help former rough sleeper Derrick Riddle. Derrick urgently needs to find £4000 to pay for dialysis which will prolong his life long enough for him to return to his native Jamaica and be reunited with his family before he dies.

After being diagnosed with terminal cancer, doctors have advised Derrick that he only has days to live unless he can raise the money required to pay for crucial dialysis treatment which will extend his life by a few weeks, enabling him to return home.

Derrick is currently a resident at Thames Reach’s Graham House hostel in London.

Please dig deep and donate to help Derrick now.
