Hi, my name is Nathan.

I’m not one to normally be on here asking for assistance, but it involves my kids so I'm asking for help where ever I can.

I am a father of 4 children and yesterday we lost our family home due to fire.

Luckily everyone got out of the house including our animals who are staying with friends and family while we work out what’s next.

The local council have assisted with accommodation last night and the Salvation Army are helping with accommodation for the rest of the weekend until we can organise assistance during the week when other services are available.

Unfortunately we didn’t have contents insurance and we lost everything we own.

With the school year about to start we won’t be able to afford to ensure they have everything they need to start the year.

We have a lot of things to replace just to get by and we are financially ruined.

We all have our lives though and that’s what is seeing us through at this point.
