Kanchuna above, is one of the tailors at Jacobswell and is facing many problems and for has asked for help. Both Kanchuna and her husband, after marriage, moved out of the inner slum dwelling and rented a small place near to work. Her husband had an accident on his scooter and was unable to keep his job and so they fell behind with the rent. Kanchuna took out a loan to pay the rent.
I was in India in October and kanchuna came crying to work because the loan sharks had beaten up her husband because he had not paid the monthly interest. This week it has happened again. The interrest is so high that it leaves them with nothing else to live on.
Her brother is living with his family in her deceased family home but the roof area belongs to Kanchuna.
She has sent the pictures and and the cost to build a basic structure , install water and hopefully electricty would cost about £1500.
Are you able to help?
