Until Today...

Until today, I was blissfully ignorant to the recession.. I always heard people talking about it, but never really realised what all the fuss was... After all, it hasn't affected me.
I always imagined that when the recession 'hit' it would all come at once... I'd leave my house one morning to find ALL the banks closed down, shops closing, everything in grayscale... and the world would literally combust and end.

And how wrong was I...Comfortable in my own little world I was unaware of the people the recession had really hit in England...

Until Today, I was unaware that irreplacable charities in England were suffering
Until Today, I was unaware that charities close to home who have helped SO many people I know were struggling to keep open.
And Until Today, I was unaware that Home Start Arun, a fantastic Family Support Charity which supports families in the Arun community overcome tough obstacles, were lacking funding...
And today, they announced...
'It's a sad week for Home-Start Arun this week. Due to lack of funding the Management Board has had to take the decision to close both the Family Groups from March....Telling the families this week has been hard, but we intend to keep fighting for funding...miracles do happen after all.'

The recession is happening all around us, and we're only going to realise the damage caused when it's too late... If everyone out there who has the means and can afford it, donated even the littlest bits of money to deserving Charities such as Home-Start Arun it would make a BIG difference... Give these lovely people a call on 01903 899707 or an email , admin@home-startarun.org.uk... you know you want to!

Dig deep and donate...

Happy Donating!
