£0 remaining for a bed, iron and ironing board
This young mum has suffered several tragedies in the last few years, including losing a child. Her father died of cancer and she has taken on the responsibility of caring for her double amputee mother. This young mum's marriage has broken up and she is bringing up her two children alone. They have had a fire and, due to losing everything, are in temporary housing. Whilst they have received many kind donations of clothes and furniture, they still need a bed for mum and an iron and ironing board. Please can you help?
Our client is currently on long term sick, due to her medical conditions, including fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. She owns her property and has issues with penetrating damp. The costs of the works, in addition to the cost of scaffolding, is unobtainable for our client as she is reliant on benefits, due to her health conditions. A dehumidifier would help to combat the high humidity which is exacerbating her health conditions and help her to maintain a healthy living environment.
C, a refugee who is disabled and lives alone, receives Universal Credit. She recently got a council home and needs your generous donation to obtain a washing machine. With the moving costs and getting other essential furniture for her house, C could not afford this extra expense. Your donations will be massively helpful for her.
This client is a single parent with three young children. Their property has issues with damp and mould, primarily in the storage areas. Mum is waiting for the council to deal with the issue, but fears the mould spores will cause her children's clothes to become mouldy and negatively effect their health. We have provided them with advice and two hydrometers to keep an eye on humidity levels. However, a dehumidifier will help keep the area free of mould so mum can store things safely.
