At the start of June, we heard the wonderful news that our application for £4,000 of Crisis Funding from the Cornwall Community Foundation had been approved.
We had until the end of September to allocate this funding but due to receiving an increasing number of applications from Cornwall, we allocated the funding a month early !
15 families have received a grant thanks to the Cornwall Community Foundation, which includes 32 children and 20 parents and carers. In total 26 items were purchased including –
3 washing machines, 2 cookers, 2 fridge/freezers, 3 essential pieces of furniture, 3 mattresses, a microwave, a bundle of baby clothing and 11 sets of school uniform.
However 19 items of baby clothing were purchased for one premature baby and each school uniform set provided usually included at least 4-6 items and sometimes even more.
Applications for school uniforms are still arriving and if you are or know of a family who needs our help, please click here
