What type of help are you looking for? Do you want to try to make money online from places like myLot? What do you have available to you? In our community social services handles Christmas requests. In a neighboring community the police take kids out shopping for a day.

Kindly do the way radnurse has adviced. Church is the better place to approach for all your needs.

Have a 'lets have fun making everything ourselves' Christmas. The kids learn loads of skills and the costs go right down to about £10 a head on gifts and £20 total for dinner

I'd check with Salvation Army, Goodwill, local Churches. Ask around to find out whether or not there are parades in your area where local police stations and fire stations collect toys, clothing, etc. for needy families. They may be able to make suggestions to assist you. Best of luck!

Try Salvation Army, Goodwill, local churches. Call your Job and Family Services if your county and has one and they can get you in touch with other agencies and businesses willing to help out.

Being a single mum is tough!! Try the Salvation Army, St Vincent De Pauls, any charity like these help out with families throught the year. Hope you and your children have a Merry Christmas!

The Salvation Army, local churches, toys for tots, I know there are more I'mm just drawing a blank right now. Maybe even check with your local chamber of commerce or city hall, they maybe able to point you in a more appropriate direction. I hope you get the help you need as I'm sure you have your hands full.
