Why your help is needed?
The number of people coming to Eema Care for support is rising quickly. Many of the people asking for our support are first-time service users: savings and resilience exhausted, challenges growing, and hope ebbing away as they teeter on the edge.
Anyone can be affected by unexpected events or hidden problems: crisis, loss, insecurity and mental health challenges. Single mothers in our community are struggle more than most, they have no one to turn to for guidance and support. They are living day by day not knowing how they will be able to afford to put food on the table for their children or how they will pay for childcare costs and rising energy bills.
