Dear Donya,
On behalf of everyone at Freedom from Torture, I am writing to thank you very much for your recent kind donation of £209.40 in total from the Christmas card sales, donation and sales of your preloved bags. It is brilliant to receive your various donations, and we are incredibly grateful for your continued support.

It is only through donations like yours, that we can give torture survivors the support and care they desperately need. Gifts like yours mean they can begin to heal. Your support will enable survivors to spend time with our doctors and therapists, and take part in creative groups like gardening, art or bread making.

One survivor you have helped is Faryad, who takes part in our creative writing group Write to Life. Faryad said: “The group has helped me to begin writing again, helped me to begin recovering myself. The group members have become my friends and my family, and I have a place where I can relax, be myself, and share my worries. To find such warmth and care in a place so far from home, in a culture so different from my own, has saved my life. ”

Thank you `for working so hard to ensure Faryad continues to increase his confidence, taking further steps to recover from the torture he endured. I hope you can pass on our warmest thoughts to everyone involved in your wonderful fundraising activities.

With kindest regards and very best wishes to you for 2018,
Mandy Taylor
