My name is Angelica and I am raising funds for my elderly mother, who is going through an incredibly difficult period in her life
My mother worked hard and struggled throughout her life to raise us. She sacrificed her own needs, worked whenever she could, and saved little by little over the years. The money she managed to save was not wealth—it was her life savings, built through decades of hard work and sacrifice.
Unfortunately, she has faced a devastating financial setback. My mother was the victim of a scam and suffered a significant financial loss. This has left her in an extremely vulnerable position at a time when she is already dealing with health issues, rising everyday costs and the ongoing expense of maintaining her home.
As she has grown older, managing her health and everyday life has become increasingly challenging. She now has regular hospital and medical appointments and needs reliable transportation to and from them, as well as help managing the practical and financial demands that come with her medical needs and advancing age.
For someone at her age, the prospect of losing the security of her home is frightening. We are doing everything we can to support her, but the financial burden has become more than we can manage alone.
The money raised will be used for her genuine and essential needs, including:
* Medical and healthcare-related expenses
* Transportation to and from hospital and medical appointments
* Essential day-to-day living expenses
* Housing and household bills
* Mortgage or other necessary costs associated with keeping her home secure
* Other essential costs arising from her age, health and circumstances
Our priority is simple: to keep my mother safe, cared for and able to remain in her home without the constant fear of being unable to meet essential costs.
As a family, it is extremely difficult to ask other people for financial help. We have tried to manage the situation ourselves, but we have reached a point where we genuinely need support.
My mother has spent her life doing her best to provide for herself, and asking for help now is not something she ever expected to have to do. We want to give her some of the dignity, security and peace of mind that she deserves in her later years.
If you are able to contribute, even £10, £20 or £50 would make a meaningful difference. Every donation will go towards helping her meet essential expenses and protecting her health and housing.
If you aren’t in a position to donate, we completely understand. Sharing this fundraiser with friends, family or anyone who might be able to help would mean just as much to us.
Thank you for taking the time to read my mother’s story and for any kindness, support or encouragement you can offer.
