    Story

    As we all sit cosy in our own homes with the option to have the radiators on or off, with the option to eat & drink whatever food we want, with the option to walk, sit & sleep in comfortable conditions, with the option to buy whatever we want. We have people in the world today who don't have these options.

    The aim is to make peoples living conditions better in the West Bank of Palestine. I had the opportunity to meet a Palestinian family of 7 while I was there, both the father & son are not capable of working due to mental & physical disabilities, theres the mother who completes her duties by looking after the household & by feeding the family to whatever she has available, then there's 4 daughters & only one of them is currently working who is maintaining the family, she is looking after the father & brother & covers their medical costs. She can only do so much, while the other three daughters are studying & can't find a job due to their own health issues.

    The families in the west bank of Palestine have always gone through hardships, they are currently in a very bad position. They are limited to the amount of water they're allowed to use on a daily basis, they are not allowed out from the area they live in without crossing borders. These are just basic things but a lot more happens in the west bank of Palestine. I've witnessed much with my own eyes, I have been visiting Palestine since the past 9 years trying to do as much as I can.

    This is some background about the family. Imagine if we had to lie in this state/condition? would we be able to deal with it? My aim isn't to give them money, my aim is to renovate the home to such a state that it's good to live in for the father, son & baby who all have a mental disability. The current house is not safe, the electricity is all fully linked to one wire & its over loaded, with your help I can try to the best of my ability to make their home a home.

    I need your help to make a difference to this family.

      Here if you look on the centre of the ceiling you see the black marks, these marks are from the amount of times the lights have blown in this house, once again a lot of electrical work needs to be done in order to provide the family with a safe environment especially for those who have a disability especially the 6 month old baby. in winter this house gets cold, sometimes its freezing, I'm not sure how they keep themselves warm.

      This is the female bedroom, once again they just put the mattresses out & sleep on them. No storage facilities in the house to store clothes or anything. We are lucky that we have basic daily needs, these people don't.

      This their living room. The windows are smashed behind the door, difficult to live in winter. There are no heatings in the household.
