 New stretch target

All profits and extra funding goes to the local community, community kitchen and community groups as well as the homeless.

We are not for profit 

We are going National thanks to your overwhelming support, because of your kindness we can now help thousands if not hundreds of thousands elderly and disabled people in the UK.

With winter just around the corner and finances for the vulnerable decreasing, Depher is in the right position to take away the worry and the strain.

This means that lives can and will be saved in communities that would otherwise be forgotten.

We have companies and tradesmen offering their support and help from all areas in the country and in other parts of the world, this has truly woken up communities in every part of the planet. I am so grateful and humbled by every single person who is with us on this journey.

Thank you

James Anderson

FUEL POVERTY IS NOT GOING TO DISAPPEAR ON ITS OWN AND NEITHER ARE THE DANGERS THAT THE ELDERLY OR DISABLED FACE WITH THE VERY HIGH COST OF REPAIRS TO THEIR HEATING OR PLUMBING.


BUT WE ALL CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

Depher was established in March 2017 to help in combating the suffering that the elderly and disabled face on a daily basis.

They suffer when it comes to many problems but most of all when they have 

No heating or hot water, water leaks or gas leaks, carbon monoxide dangers

The initiative gives them a lifeline that they can call to receive a free service and repair to the #emergency #GAS and #WATER breakdown that they face.

We have received this wonderful award from the lovely people in the trade and fix radio.

Thank you so much

Since the start of Depher CIC we have helped and saved 2389 #elderly and #disabled people from the torment of no heating or hot water, gas leaks, water leaks and the dangers of carbon monoxide within their homes.

We are now in the verge of coming into our 3rd winter period and we know that the #service will be needed even more if the #winter becomes a cold and long one, with this in mind we have to act now so we have enough funds available to cope with the demand.

We need your urgent help

This helps with the cost of materials and the running costs of the initiative so we are and always will be available 24 hours a day, with your help we know that we can achieve this.

Most of the #elderly and #disabled can be stubborn when it comes to asking for help from #friends and #family, that is why we established depher so they know that depher is a company that is here and established for the purpose of taking away the worry of asking for help.

The finances saved by the elderly and disabled using this initiative can be used for other life saving bills like 

FOOD, CLOTHING, MEDICATION, ELECTRIC AND GAS.

This keeps them safe and #independent, in their own homes and gives you and your #family peace of mind, if an emergency does happen and you cannot reach them, then they can call us to get to them quickly to get the repair done and take away the dangers that they could face. We will keep in close contact with you and give you updates on the repairs and safety of your relative.

There are hundreds of thousands of #elderly and #disabled people in our country that stay #silent and #suffer alone, some of these people can even die if the cold takes hold because they cannot afford to repair the boiler or #gas #fire and get the #emergency #leak #repaired. 

1570811839_60120313_429032501214912_4192802878865276928_n.jpg

We help the community food kitchen to deliver a vital service to everybody in the community.

24 hours help, Always

If they cannot afford to get the #emergency repaired then they will know that they can call us and we will get to them and stop the worst thing and suffering from happening.

Please help Depher to deliver this proven and needed service to all that need it, to get to your loved ones when you cannot and to save the lives of the ones that are sometimes forgotten.

 The people you see above and below are only a few of the #parents and #grandparents of #families that we have had the pleasure of meeting and assisting, they all have their own story and their own emergency that we removed and repaired for them.

Some were #water leaks and some were #gas leaks, no #heating and no #hot water with some that were life changing carbon monoxide leaks in the home were they live.

Some of the people you see received a life saving repair by calling us at the right time.
