Worth remembering there is no place to go to escape the cold, no matter what, they have to endure it, imagine how often they have faced this, while hungry, while scared, it all compounds into something we in safety can't even comprehend. Use your voice, share, donate if you can, don't be silent.

The government still claim that they have to consult with the Attorney General about including services alongside goods in the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill. In fact, the AG previously delivered 23 pages of legal advice, which did not flag the need for any distinction between goods and services.

I...just keep sharing and hope we reach someone who can donate. These posts are not hitting high enough shares and you can help them go far and change this trend.

I believe in us!
Officially: the only help coming in is people who clicked “weekly.”

This covers only 51% of our absolute minimum per week.

That math is deadly.

If we make that 51% into 100%, it’d be lifesaving.

New day, new week, same hope...our current priorities on the giving circle are still:

- Emergency medical care for three women
- Newborn supplies
- Shelter before winter

In minding its pennies, the state prioritises beancounting over the value of those services to society.
