Our Mission:
We are raising funds to help struggling families and small businesses in Herefordshire who have been hit hard by financial hardships, including the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. We are asking for just £1 from each supporter—if everyone gives just £1, it can add up to a huge difference! If you would like to donate more, it will of course be greatly appreciated, but we believe £1 is something that most people can afford and will make it easier for more people to get involved.

Every £1 donated will go directly toward providing essential support to families in need and helping local businesses stay afloat.

How We Will Use the Funds:
We will split the funds raised equally between two vital causes:

Supporting Families in Need:
We aim to help families who are facing difficulties with daily essentials like food, housing, and utility bills. The money will be distributed in the form of direct cash assistance or vouchers for groceries and utilities. We prioritize families that are facing immediate risks such as eviction or food insecurity.

Helping Local Businesses:
Local businesses are the backbone of our community, and many are struggling to survive due to the economic challenges. We will provide small grants to businesses or purchase products and services from them to distribute to families in need. This way, we are supporting both families and the local economy.

How We Choose Who to Help:
To ensure transparency and fairness, families and businesses in need can apply for support through an online form. We will collaborate with local charities, community centres, and other organizations to identify those who need assistance the most. We also welcome direct applications from those seeking help.

For families, our criteria will focus on:

  • Financial hardship (income loss, unemployment, etc.)
  • Number of dependents (children, elderly, etc.)
  • Urgent needs (risk of eviction, inability to afford basic necessities)

For businesses, we will consider:

  • Financial struggles due to economic downturn
  • How the business impacts the local community (e.g., local jobs, essential services)
  • Urgency of support needed to prevent closure

How to Apply:
If you are a family or business in need of support, you can apply via our online form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf8K2QAD3mMTpJEjV71SawTz5DrieJS0WWdj6R51VkP_8ih9A/viewform?usp=sf_link . This form will collect information about your current situation, and we will review all applications based on the criteria above.

Updates and Transparency:
We are committed to being fully transparent about how the funds are used. Regular updates will be posted here, including stories from the families and businesses we’ve helped. Our goal is to ensure every £1 you donate has a direct and meaningful impact on those in need.

How You Can Help:

  • Donate: Even £1 can make a difference. If you can give more, we would deeply appreciate it, but £1 will go a long way if enough people take part.
  • Share: Please help us spread the word by sharing this campaign on social media and with your networks.

Together, we can make a real difference for families and businesses in Herefordshire!

Thank you for your support!
