was only 17 when she died. My daughter is also in her teens and
shares her life with diabetes. This Appeal not only aims to raise
funds to develop a unique Centre, but also to raise awareness of a
condition that is often misunderstood, & that can lead to long-term
medical problems if left undetected & not carefully managed.
Please do offer your support… diabetes could hit you for six!” Ian

latest specialist equipment, medical research, redevelopment and
family accommodation. We want to ensure the hospital remains a world

suffering from complex and life-threatening conditions
Our philosophy is ‘the child first and always’. We perform 550 child

ActionAid is one of the UK’s largest international development
charities, helping poor children, families and communities in over
35 of the world’s poorest countries. Child sponsorship is key to our
work.
If we all sponsored a child in the developing world, imagine the
difference we could make. |
|
|
The world’s poorest people would get a
chance to create a self-reliant future. Poverty could be a thing of
the past. Child sponsorship helps a child’s whole community by
providing access to safe, clean water, healthcare, education and an
escape from a life of hardship and disease. Sponsors will see how
their money is working through regular updates from local
fieldworkers and personal messages from the child they sponsor. |

|
|
|
|
Every child deserves a life free poverty, abuse
and discrimination. Poverty robs children of their childhood and
their future. Help us fight to end child poverty.

Shelter
|
|
 |
One million children in Britain live in bad housing
- enough to fill the cities of Edinburgh, Bath and
Manchester. They live in housing that is run-down,
overcrowded or dangerous.
Bad housing wrecks lives and robs children of their
security, health, and a fair chance in life. |
|
|
Shelter helps 100,000 people a year
fight for their rights, get back on their feet, and find
and keep a home. For £2 a month you can help. Please set
up a regular gift now. Thank you. |
