Story

<p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>How many 17 year olds have cutlery or duvet?</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>Quite often, when the young people we support move into a room in a shared house they don't have more than the clothes they're in, let alone a mug or loo roll!</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>It's most likely they don't know anyone in the house, and for many it's their first time living alone. It can be a bit scary and quite lonely.<br /></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>An Indykit gives them the small start up kit they need - a towel, some bedding, cutlery, crockery, some toiletries and cleaning stuff and a choice of hot drink. Basics. </strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong><br /></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>We can do this for about &pound;50. Not a bad price for a sense of dignity and a small bit of independence. <br /></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>Please give what you can. </strong></span></p>
