Story
as well as raising funds for our homeless friends and disadvantaged people... Leslie's Care Packages would also like to support the DEBRA DREW fund, by donating some of the money we are raising.
Friends of a woman from Stourbridge who was left unable to walk after trying to rescue a boy while on holiday, are planning a huge fundraising event next month.

Funds raised will go directly to funding the provision of Sleeping bags, food, toiletries, socks, underwear, blankets, warm clothing, rucksacks.
Part of the funds will go directly to emergency Shelters, so that they can give rest, warmth and friendship to the rough sleepers.
Leslie's Care Packages for the Homeless has launched a Nation Wide appeal. From now until the end of April 2017, we are appealing to every household with internet access, to very kindly donate just "£2" out of their budget, as it will mean the world to someone in need. As well as raising awareness of homelessness, we are raising much needed funds for our homeless friends.
Anybody who would like to donate more than £2 is more than welcome to do so, thank you in advance for all your support and kindness..
Homelessness in the UK has become a major issue, and we need to take action now. Please help us to provide much needed provisions for our homeless friends, by donating just "£2" today. You can make a difference. KINDNESS INSPIRES KINDNESS.
Homelessness isn't just suffered by rough sleepers.
The "hidden homeless" are those living in unsuitable, temporary or crowded accommodation. Homelessness is devastating, leaving people vulnerable, low self-esteem and isolated and everyone deserves a place to call home.
Homelessness is not a choice, and can happen to anyone at any time. Homeless are from all walks of life, from failed marriages, loss of jobs, loss of family members, people being abused, and with mental health issues.

Bravo, Vi! I love what you're doing, even whilst I despise the need to do it. I've made our contribution and a few £ besides, just to balance out the heartless fascists in my life. Good luck! Steve F.
