Aim
The rising costs of living are forcing millions of people to make impossible decisions. Please give now to support people across the country
Skyrocketing bills. Soaring food prices. Spiralling levels of poverty.
The cost of living crisis has forced millions of people across the country to make impossible decisions.
Most of us are just about scraping by, cancelling subscriptions; buying cheaper brands; putting on an extra jumper. But for millions who were already living in poverty, it’s a disaster. They are completely trapped.
Life was tough enough already. Now, it’s impossible. Families are being crushed under a tsunami of rising costs.
They don’t have a luxury to get rid of. Freezing energy prices was never going to be enough. They were already struggling to pay for them.
Wherever you live in the UK, people in your community are not just avoiding using the cooker, they’re taking out lightbulbs. they’re turning off the fridge. They’re going to bed early to stay warm and keep the bills down.
As parents struggle with the stress of holding everything together, they’re missing meals to protect their kids from how bad things are.
THEY NEED OUR HELP NOW, MORE THAN EVER
We simply cannot let this happen. We need to come together and help our neighbours now. It’s unacceptable that 50% of families will have to go without necessities this winter. That 1 in 3 children are living in poverty. We’re running out of time. People need us, right now.
PLEASE DONATE WHAT YOU CAN
Your donation has never been more important. And it can change lives this winter, and into the new year.
The money raised for Comic Relief will support organisations all over the country that are working hard to ease the pressure and help people through the toughest times of their lives.
From providing warm winter clothes, electric blankets, energy top up cards and food vouchers to also supporting people with their mental health, the appeal will help get urgent support to people who need it most.
We know times are tough. But if you can give just a little bit, it will go to people in the UK who are really struggling right now to get through this crisis.
