✨ Clares Law
In 2009 Clare Wood was murdered then set on fire by her ex-partner.
Clare had made multiple reports to the police about him in the time leading up to her murder, reports included criminal damage and threats to kill.
Despite those reports, he was still able to get to her house and murder her.

During Clares murder investigation her family discovered he had a history of violence against women and that he had even served time in prison because of this.
Clares family campaigned to change legislation and protect other women like Clare.
They were successful in their campaign and the result of their campaign was Clares Law.

So this happened yesterday...

Last week i was contacted by this lovely lady who told me that we were their chosen local charity to receive the proceeds of their 2nd hand book sale.

I would like to say the biggest thank you to the Customers of Tesco Sandy.
The donation will help us no end with the women and young girls we support 💜

I wanted to say a huge Thank You to Paul Day.

Paul recently celebrated a milestone birthday and instead of gifts, asked for donations to a local charity of his choice.
We were very honoured when Paul asked if he could put us down as his chosen charity.
Paul and his guests raised an amazing £117 so to all that donated, Thank You 💜

✨Ok, we need to have a little chat...

You might’ve wondered where I’ve been, and the honest answer is i’ve been feeling a bit lost with Daisy.
Things had gone really quiet, donations slowed down, requests for support seemed to disappear and i got a bit disheartened.
I questioned whether I was still doing the right thing, whether Daisy was still needed and, for a little while i just didn’t have the energy to keep pushing.

And then, because life has a funny way of doing things… the requests started coming in again.
Quite a few of them. Suddenly I went from "Does anyone need us anymore?" to "Oh goodness, I have a LOT to do!"
And i got overwhelmed by it all.
So then i shut down for a while 🤦‍♀️

BUT, now i’ve had a word with myself.
I’ve reminded myself why I started Daisy in the first place, how many women and girls we’ve already been able to support, and that i can do this.
So here i am.
No pretending i haven’t struggled, just me bit of honesty, taking a breath and getting back to doing what Daisy was created to do. 🌼

There are women and girls who need support. There are people who want to support. And there is still so much we can do together.

So… hello again. 👋🏻
Daisy is back, and this time we’re taking it one step at a time.
Thank you to everyone who has stuck around, checked in, donated, shared our posts or simply followed along.

It genuinely means more than you know.

Being the only parent in the house is f**king hard - there i said it.

Yeah sure, you might get every other weekend to yourself but the rest of the time it's just you.
You parent (everything that comes under that umbrella), cook, clean, wash, tidy, referee and all the time stress about whether you're doing a good enough job.
There's no one to tag in when you just need 5 minutes, no one to reason with the kids when they don't like what you've said. You have to be the good cop and the bad cop.
No one cooks dinner if you're ill.
You take the full brunt of their moods (even if you didn't cause it).
No one says thank you when you've driven to the same football ground 3 times in one day.
You get told your car's s**t because it's not big enough to fit their friends in.

It's been a day, bet you couldn't guess 😂
So now while they're training, i'm drinking my tea and having myself a little car karaoke.

What do you do to pick yourself up when you've had one of those days?

Just a reminder that the absolute legends down Pictures of Lily are and have been a designated Donation Drop off Point for us.

So if you have Hygiene and Sanitary products that you'd like to donate to us then you can pop them into the guys down there and i'll then collect them.
What you can donate:
° Shower Gel
° Shampoo
° Deodorant
° Toothpaste
° Toothbrushes
° Sanitary Products
** all donations must be unopened/unused**

As always, thank you for all the support 💜

✨ I'm going to be honest for a minute...
It's been quiet, really quiet.
The requests for hygiene packs slowed down.
Donations have gotten less frequent.
Social media engagement has dropped.
And somewhere along the way, so did my motivation.

When you're pouring your heart into something that suddenly feels like no one is seeing, it's easy to start wondering if you're making any difference at all.
So I stopped posting.
Not because the need disappeared.
Not because The Daisy Charity stopped caring.
But because, if I'm honest, I felt disheartened.

Yesterday, we had a trustee meeting.
We talked about where we've been, where we are now, and most importantly, where we're going from here.
It also reminded me why we started this charity in the first place.

We exist because no woman or young girl should have to choose between buying food and buying period products.
We exist because hygiene poverty is real.
Because dignity matters.
Because sometimes the smallest acts of kindness make the biggest difference.
The need hasn't gone away.
It's still there... it's no where near as quiet as the algorithms would have us believe.
So we're not disappearing.
We're showing up again.

Over the coming weeks we'll be sharing more about what we do, the realities of hygiene and period poverty, ways you can support us, and hopefully reminding people that together we really can make a difference.

If you've supported us before, thank you.
If you've only just found us, Hi.

If you've ever wondered whether one packet of sanitary products, one bottle of shampoo, or one share of a post can make a difference...

The answer is yes, it really can.

Here's to starting again. 💜
