Resettlement support for 9 people arriving in Nottingham

My family left Eritrea 12 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Nottingham. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in September. I was a nurse in Eritrea, and I'm studying the language every evening. Our daughter and son have started school and are doing well. We want nothing more than to be self-sufficient. This fund will help us through the first six months. All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent). Where the $2,200 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $630 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $200 • Rent deposit and first month: $1,370 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Madelyn
