A mum is freezing because winter has arrived in Canberra. She can't afford to turn on the heating, and so she sleeps on the floor so her kids can keep warm in a bed and on the lounge.
She turns to the Salvation Army to ask for a blanket and it's possibly one of the more than 800 warm items donated at a blanket drive at last year's Handmade Market.
The chance to feel warm and cosy as the weather turns means the world to this mum, struggling as the cost of living continues to bite in the national capital, with its sheen of prosperity.
