HOW YOU CAN HELP: DONATE TO THE VICTIMS OF THOSE AFFECTED BY THE DEVASTATING FLOODING
The
Daily Mail has launched a Christ
With 6,500 homes swamped by Storm Desmond, Christmas has been ruined for thousands.
Now the Mail asks our readers - famed for their generosity - to join in easing the families’ awful plight.
Although
the storm waters are subsiding, harrowing images of householders
weeping as they return to their sodden properties symbolise the anguish
being felt.
Daily Mail readers can donate by credit or debit card online, using PayPal, or by sending cheques to alleviate the hardship.
The
funds will be distributed in close consultation with local charities
who have already been supplying temporary accommodation, emergency
repairs, food, drink and clothing, plus childcare equipment.
The
Mail’s appeal was immediately welcomed by Environment Secretary
Elizabeth Truss, who said: ‘The great British public is world renowned
for its resilience and generosity of spirit. It’s truly humbling to see
so many people reaching out to the families affected, and this is
another fantastic initiative.’
Tim
Farron, Lib Dem leader and a Cumbrian MP, added: ‘I want to thank the
Daily Mail for starting this campaign which will mean so much to people
who have lost so much.'
