Help a local child- Finn Douglas fund

The Finn- Douglas fund.

The Finn-Douglas fund was set up in partnership with the Colchester community group to support local children in need. The fund is managed by Home-Start Colchester who is accountable to the Charities commision.

We are asking people to Help a Local child !

There are many children here in Colchester in vulnerable situations that need support from a charity like Home-Start Colchester. Imagine losing your home and having to live in temporary accomadation with little belongings due to moving with a black bag.  Going to school with worn out unform, waking up at Christmas to feel Santa forgot you. 

As a charity we can buy greatly reduced new items which means children who have low income families can also experince an amazing new sweat top, the shoes they always wanted but could never  have. For £5.00 we can purchase VANS shoes, for £6.00 a warm new Super Dry coat. Help us to use to bring some joy to children during diffiuclt times.

Any donation you give will go directl into the Finn-Douglas Fund to be used 100% on providing items requests by local children in need.  It could be clothes, shoes, food, books, we will look at each request and try to help.

Equally if you need help for a child under 18 years, the contact Office@homestartcolchester.org.uk and ask for a request form.

Please help us to help a local child.
