Regular giving

The workshops increased my confidence and taught me that I’m doing the best I can. I found out so much information about local groups and organisations that could help us. I also made several friends, and we have met up since. I found that, although our children’s issues were different, we had a common understanding, which I really appreciated.

Contact has helped my family with endless issues over the years including helping me understand what benefits we’re entitled to and answering questions I’ve had about my daughter’s education. And we’ve taken part in many workshops, family events and activities organised by Contact. But one of the biggest factors for me has been that Contact has stopped us feeling so alone. We are part of a bigger family who can support each other.

As a full-time carer of three family members, the exhaustion levels I face and the worry on a daily basis, particularly with benefit matters are greatly alleviated by your help. I’m more grateful than I can say for the advice, patience and the support that you give me.
