A Leeds charity at “breaking point” has received a £50,000 donation from Martin Lewis after responding to his tweet.
Leeds Money Buddy, an award winning money advice charity, was responding to Martin Lewis, host of ITV’s Martin Lewis Money Show, about how hard it was to keep up with the number of people asking for advice. He quickly responded to offer them money to help.
Money Buddies responded by saying: “We are in the same boat Martin. We saw twice as many people than we expected to see in February, same again in March, and we have a huge waiting list of people desperate to see us who are vulnerable. We are at breaking point... the state must intervene now…”
