Hi Mel,
Thank you so much for the kind donation of children’s coats and toiletries that you have brought in to us at The Haven – we are so grateful for your support and this will go a long way in supporting women and children we support; especially at this time of year when the weather is so cold.
Women and children often arrive at our refuges with nothing more than the clothes on their backs, having had to flee at a moment’s notice in fear of their lives – this means that they have usually had no time to bring their personal possessions with them; let alone coats and warm items. This can be very daunting for women and can add to an already terrified feeling. The donations that you kindly sent in will allow the women we support to feel a sense of comfort and to wrap their children up warm – this can take one of their worries away as they move away from the fear of abuse.
Thank you once again for behalf of everyone we support here at The Haven.
Best Wishes,
Jade Secker
