Hi 

I do hope you got a chance to read the email I sent earlier this week. In case you haven't seen it, I'm sharing it with you again because I hope you can help a mum who has experienced domestic violence. We are so sad to see these cases rise every day. 

We've been asked to help a mother who’s been hurt by everyone she should have been able to trust. 

Her partner, the father of her children, was violent. 
 
Then her brother was abusive too.
 
And when her own mum didn’t believe her brother was abusive, she was kicked out of the family home. 
 
This woman was left alone, homeless and pregnant with her third child. She had to live in a cheap and dingy motel for five months. 
 
She wasn’t prepared at all when her baby was born. She felt scared, unsafe, isolated. She had none of the essential items she needed for her new baby. 

Will you please help today? No one deserves to have a life like this. 

Most of the families you help share the common experience of trauma, have a limited support network, and feel completely isolated from their community. Every day is challenging and lonely. 

Without a safe car seat, pram or baby carrier for their child, they can experience severe anxiety about travel and shut themselves off from the world.

Will you please donate today so we can make sure more families are provided with safe prams, car seats and baby carriers to help them feel connected again? 

In return for your donation, I promise we will get this mum her very own ‘freedom machine’ (in the case of this mum - it will be freedom in the form of a pram!). And I promise we’ll continue supporting other families who need mobility to reach services and a community that will help them. 
 
We know a pram will give this mum the freedom of being able to walk to the supermarket or the local park with a friend, something she used to enjoy. 
 
Imagine what a difference it will make to her and her children to be able to move around freely again. 

With your help, we can keep vulnerable families mobile and connected, and ensure babies and children travel safely. 

Without our help, they will be stuck - trapped and isolated without a way to safely use transport or easily walk around their neighbourhood. 

Any amount you can donate today will make a huge difference to a family who are feeling cut off from the world. 

Thank you, 

Julia
