"We don't often give enough credit to the good in this world.
"There's so much hate and hostility floating around that we regularly forget just how wonderful people can be. This £100 means SO much to me and my family.
"I've been a solo mumma bear for over five years and struggled a lot with finances, leading to me not being able to give my sprogs all that they deserve.

"For someone to be so insanely thoughtful to give £100 of their own money to a stranger... it honestly has restored my faith in humanity! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
"I've spent all day thinking up ways to pay it forward, if anyone has any suggestions let me know! X."
