A Leeds mum had to resort to getting a tent for her and her kids to sleep in as the cost of living crisis deepens in our city.
Other parents have no electricity and no beds for their children to sleep in, a Leeds-based charity has revealed. Bex Wilson, founder of Zarach, has shared the harrowing accounts as she revealed the charity recently delivered 67 beds for children in just one week.
SOS messages she received include one mum who had no electricity and another mum whose rental property for the following week had fallen through. The mum was going to buy a tent as she couldn’t afford to spend another night in a hotel, the charity wrote on Facebook.
