All 4 children require a high level of care and the 2 younger children are currently home schooled whilst the older 2 are at a special school for physical and learning difficulties.

The family do not have suitable beds and bedding so Home Church has helped with the children's beds but L needs a new double bed and bedding for herself.

This amazing Mum, who has fled Domestic Violence, has been given a grant for new carpets but can't afford a hoover to keep them clean. Mum escaped Domestic Violence and so has struggled to start over from scratch, having to buy the items for her home. She was provided an unfurnished, unsuitable house, and has done amazingly at sourcing items, but is in need of a hoover. She is such a lovely Mum who desperately wants to keep her house clean to ensure the children can stay with her.

This young father with a 6 year old child is setting up home from scratch with the help of his social worker following a recent relationship break down. He normally works as a scaffolder but following a back injury he had to take a more sedentary role and therefore a reduction in wages. He has saved and bought several essential items second hand but still is in need of a cooker to provide healthy meals for his daughter. We have sourced a nearly new cooker. Please can you help us purchase this for him?

This single mum is struggling financially. Mum has had a hard time after a break down in her relationship with her recent boyfriend and it has caused her much stress.

V has been referred to us by MacMillan Cancer Support as she has been diagnosed with lung cancer. She is a single mum to a 15 year old girl and life has been hard the last few weeks.
