How We'll Share Your Story

By sharing your story, you're joining us in raising awareness. We'd love to collaborate with you to share your experiences on our various platforms, including social media and our website.

People are influenced and inspired best by other people; we'd therefore love to share your story along with a picture or two (or even a video of you telling your story). If you're happy for us to use these, we will be in touch to discuss this further with you. You can also choose to share your story anonymously if you wish. If you select the anonymous option on the form, we will change your name and use stock imagery to represent your story.

Please note *We may rework the answers you submit in the form below to best tell your story. The more you tell us about your story, the more ways we will be able to share it, ensuring we can support as many people that need it in the future. However, we will do our utmost to depict a true and accurate representation of your story. With your consent, we may also share key elements of your story with the media when suitable, amplifying the issues that drive people to seek assistance from organisations like ours. 

Your Privacy Matters

Your privacy is of utmost importance to us. We'll never share your details without your permission. We offer different ways to share your story, including anonymously, to ensure you're comfortable every step of the way. As mentioned above, your story will help to transform the lives of others for the better. We also understand circumstances change; if after submitting your story, you ever wish for us to stop using it, please email our Communications Team at [email protected].

If you've ever used our services, experienced low income, or want to make a positive impact by sharing your journey, we're here to support you. Please complete the form below, including your contact details, and a member of our team will reach out to provide more information.
