People in need often don't know where to look for help. Some don't even know that help is available at all. And many charities which exist to provide practical assistance, expert advice and financial support find it difficult to reach all of those who are eligible for their help. ACO, the Association of Charity Officers, exists to put charities in touch with people in need and people in need in touch with charities.
Getting help can be very complicated. Charities have often been established to provide assistance for specific groups, and finding a way to those which are relevant in any particular instance may be difficult. On the other hand many people in need are pleasurably surprised to discover that there is an appropriate charity for their particular need ready and able to help.
