Burnley plumber fits free boiler for terminally ill man with no hot water for two years
fitted a free boiler for a terminally ill man who had not had any no hot water at home for two years.
James Anderson is the founder of DEPHER . The charity is dedicated to helping vulnerable people in their times of need. It was originally set up to help people keep their boilers and heating running. However, amid the ongoing cost of living crisis, the charity has started to offer much more than that.It now offers services such as filling empty fridges and cupboards, paying bills and bailiffs, and even buying nappies. James said it never gets "any easier" but he has to keep fighting for the people who rely on him.
Just this week, he was called out to fit a free boiler for a terminally ill man who had not had any hot water in his house for the last two years. However, he tweeted yesterday to say that he has had to postpone all requests for help with food, gas, and electricity. He said: "The demand for food, gas, and electric is high and when we send food out we look at it from a realistic view of how families and people live."We could spread out the money and give people £40 worth of food but we know that that would not last very long. Especially if it is a big family. If we give them very little then they are going to be in the same situation.
