The Big Favour gives Kerry some sound sleep

The Big Favour gives Kerry some sound sleep

Kerry cares for her elderly mom in Durban's CBD, where they both sleep on old, dilapidated mattresses on the floor. Both mattresses are taped up to keep insects from getting inside and breeding.

Karin wrote in to the Big Favour to tell us about one of her closest friends, Kerry who deserves to sleep on something far better than an old, broken mattress with the springs and wires poking through.

Karin says Kerry is a very special person, always making time for others, and even goes to great lengths making special birthday gifts for all of her friends. 

Kerry lives with and looks after her elderly mom - both of whom never, ever complain about anything. 

"They just smile and get on with it," says Karin. 

"And one day I decided to do what I could to at least try to help. And that's when I wrote to the Big Favour," she says.

Thanks to the help of one very generous sponsor, we were able to make a difference.

Take a listen.
