For most of us Christmas and the festive season is a time to celebrate, but for those doing it tough this can be the most challenging time of year.
Financial pressures often increase over Christmas and as the housing crisis worsens, we are seeing more families struggling with housing affordability.
We also know that domestic abuse increases during the holiday season as people spend more time together at home. When mums and their kids escape violence, they usually have to leave everything behind, fleeing with nothing more than the clothes on their backs.
