4. Helping a young person start a new chapter - Jan 2020


This week we are sending £250 to a young person who found themselves ostracised by friends and abused by family to the extent police became involved and they had to leave home.

After some counselling they are now trying to start a new life and have taken up a place at university in another city.   Life is difficult and lonely with no family & friends to offer support.  Despite help from the university, past experiences make it hard to fit in and with no financial input from family they are struggling to manage.


We are very pleased to be able to send this person £250 to allow them a bit of breathing space to buy some provisions and feel some love & support from us all at 500 Together.  We wish them luck as they pursue their studies and hope they are able to progress onto great things.
