He is working hard to stay clean of drugs and alcohol, and receiving support from the local church, Cocaine Anonymous and Christians Against Poverty.

P receives Universal Credit and has been attending our centre for some years. She looks after and supports her elderly mother, brings her to the centre, and has managed to get her involved with some of the community activities. P lives alone and is on medication which needs to be kept in a fridge, but her fridge freezer has broken down, so she is currently using a neighbour's fridge which isn't ideal in the long-term. Any donations towards a fridge freezer would really help P get back on track.

This lady has had an incredibly difficult couple of months, losing both her parents in a short space of time. Understandably, she is juggling an awful lot while also dealing with the grief of her loss. One big task is to clear out her parents' flat which, along with everything else she is struggling to afford.
