Help for the Vasquez family
I am raising funds for my family which includes me and my mother.
My father, Jose Vasquez, contracted CoViD-19 at the end of March and remained in hospital for about a month. He passed away about two weeks ago.
We are shaken to the core from my father’s death and have been really been struggling financially in the aftermath of my father’s death.
Despite having worked hard and paid our taxes in the UK, we have not been able to get any assistance from the government and have relied on the goodwill of friends to help us with the funeral costs. We were barely getting by before the recent tragedy and are really struggling since, as my father was main breadwinner of the family.
At a time of intense grief, and economic hardship, we now also face the prospect of having to leave the UK, our home of 15 years.
Any assistance would help to relieve the financial pressure that we are facing during such difficult and uncertain times.
Our case was recently covered by the independent newspaper. Please see the link below:
