Story

How many 17 year olds have cutlery or duvet?

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!

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.

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.


We can do this for about £50. Not a bad price for a sense of dignity and a small bit of independence.

Please give what you can.
