Case study: donations in action

‘Family Lives has been an excellent support over the last five years of my life. I have suffered immensely with depression and at times would not have got through the day without them… Just having somebody to listen to you, help you and support you when you have troubles when at times you can’t even make sense of anything… they were always there for me even if I had to ring several times a day I could always turn to them when nobody else would be around… Without their help I don’t think I could have managed to move on with my life.’
