Family Fire Tragedy Help With Needs

Donation protected
It was early morning of 26th June 2017 when my Family was woken by my Nephew Rhys who identified just at the right time that the house was on fire.

His two youngest twin sisters, older sister, mum and a close friend were all fast asleep. Just as Rhys himself went to bed he heard the ducted vacuum cleaner turn on and thought that it was strange,. Went outside to see what it was and at this point still did not know the house was on fire. He switched the ducted vacuum off and as he entered the house he noticed smoke at which point he started to scream fire, fire. He first grabbed his younger twin sisters took them outside and proceeded to re-enter the property to save the rest of his family. The good news story is that everyone is well and safe but the sad part is that the Family was not insured and most of their personal possessions were affected either by flames, smoke or water damage. If it wasn’t for Rhys who often sleeps at friends places, another 5 minutes and the entire Family would have perished.

The family will bond together but at this stage I have setup this campaign to help gather some funds to help the family with short term accommodation and some clothing. At the moment the Family is spread across other family and friends and at different locations. I want to try and get them all together.
