Update
January 4th 2015
On December
6th we were able to provide a wood burning stove for the family.
This made a huge amount of difference, and although their shed still leaks and
is draughty it is no longer freezing. (See photo)
The final total
of money donated is £11,000, and we are now waiting for news and photos that
the container style home has arrived, been fitted and the family moved in.
Watch this space!
The
wonderfully generous response means that we can afford to purchase 3 homes for
those in need. After the first home has arrived and successfully been installed
we plan to purchase a further 2 accommodation units. Each dwelling will be fitted with a solar
power unit to provide light and a wood burning stove for heat and cooking. We
anticipate being able to provide 4 additional families with solar lighting and
will use the rest of the money for firewood if needed.
