Messages of thanks sent to us are your thanks too

The people AFTAID help are always exremely grateful. Many write, or ask a carer to write on their behalf, expressing their gratitude.

The letters are heartwarming to us and they are also expressions of thanks to our supporters who have donated the funds we use to make the grants... they are your messages too. So here are a few extracts of thank you messages we receive on your behalf.
