A moved to Glasgow 2 years ago after fleeing war torn Sudan and has made a new, safe life for himself here. A is on limited income, but has been very creative and managed to piece together some furniture etc. from local charity shops and free sites. He is struggling with bare floors and we would love to help him to get carpets to make his home warm and comfortable.

E is a middle aged lady who has worked all her life in the education sector supporting our most vulnerable children. She fell ill and lost her job during the Covid period. E has been trying to get back on her feet and find work, with help from the job centre, but her health issues complicate matters. We would like to help her with food vouchers and pay towards her utility bills as she lives on very little.

G has just moved to the area after fleeing domestic violence and is being supported by the local Domestic Violence team. After moving between hotels, she has now been offered a home which came unfurnished. Although she has received most essential household items from her support team, she's in need of a wardrobe and a chest of drawers for her bedroom which will help create a stable living environment, and support her in settling into the community so she can focus on finding work and rebuilding her life.

E lives alone with her severely autistic, non-verbal son and is experiencing significant financial hardship. Their existing sofa is broken and no longer provides suitable seating for daily family life. Without adequate furniture, everyday activities at home have become increasingly difficult. E has identified a small two-seater sofa that would provide a safe and comfortable place for both her and her son. Could you help pay for this essential item?

D is married with a 21‑month‑old baby. The family has been living in temporary accommodation and has now been offered a permanent home.

This client is a 39-year-old father who has recently separated from his wife. Following a diagnosis of poor mental health, he has been unable to continue working and is now reliant on benefits. He shares the care of his two children, aged 10 and 4, but his reduced income means he is unable to afford essential school uniforms, including winter coats and school shoes for the new term. We are requesting support towards these costs to ensure the children can return to school with all they need.

S is a regular member of the community drop-in centre in receipt of Universal Credit.

This lady, her husband and little girl are refugees with leave to remain. The lady's husband is very keen to work but, at the moment, is in college learning the language. They have a very small fridge that they were given and for which they are grateful but they would like a fridge freezer so they are able to take advantage of offers at the supermarket. This would help them with managing their money. Any help you can give would be much appreciated.

This family of parents and five children have fled abuse and been rehoused in Cornwall. The father cannot work and receives Personal Independence Payment. A child receives disability living allowance and there is Child Benefits. As they were removed hurriedly they left with virtually nothing and used other charities for household items. They have no white goods. Please can you help them with a fridge freezer which is vital in this hot weather and for buying cheaply in bulk.

This man has kidney disease requiring dialysis at least 3 times a week. He receives Universal Credit and is now applying for Personal Independence Payment. Due to the high cost of his special diet he has no funds to replace his bed which is in poor condition. Please will you help? Thank you.

Our client was made redundant last year and can only find part time work. He and his wife have four children including two year old twins. They have recently been served with an eviction notice due to the property being sold. The family are struggling to make ends meet. They are in need of bedding for two cot beds, a microwave and toaster as theirs are broken. We would also like to get them a supermarket voucher for nappies, baby items and extra food. All donations are very welcome.

This single lady in her 50's is financially vulnerable on a very low income. She lives in her own house with no family support, and it is increasingly in need of work to make it safe. Her gas cooker was condemned in May and gas fittings deemed unsafe. She has been offered a new electric cooker which would also reduce her energy costs, but needs extensive electrical work to be able to install it. We have accessed most of the money but need the rest for her to be able to cook again.

E lives alone with her severely autistic non-verbal son and is experiencing significant financial hardship. She currently has no comfortable chair for daily use in the home, making it difficult to rest and carry out everyday activities. E has identified a supportive single chair that would provide a safe and comfortable place to sit while caring for her son. We are seeking donations towards the cost of this essential item, which would greatly improve her comfort, wellbeing and quality of life.

M and F recently received permission to stay in the UK. They have two young children at school, about 40 minutes walk from their home. The long walk every day is proving a challenge for the children, so they are both currently studying for their driving licence tests in the hope of being able to get a car as soon as possible. This would also help dad get work as a delivery driver. Any help with the cost of the driving tests (£170 for both parents) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Foodbank client and pensioner J, looks after his teenage grandchildren who are living with him. He doesn't currently receive any benefits to support them. They sleep on a blow up bed and would benefit from a double bed and mattress.

Mum and her two children have been housed in a council property after experiencing domestic abuse in the family home. Mum has experienced poor mental health and is receiving support for this. She endeavours to begin to rebuild her and her children’s lives in a safe setting. Due to having to flee the property where the perpetrator lives, mum has been unable to bring any household items with her. Family members have bought some items, but they are in need wardrobes and drawers in the bedrooms.

The couple are awaiting a decision on their asylum/human rights claim and have had no income for the past two months as financial support has stopped. They are struggling to afford food and transport to essential hearings. Although they use food banks, these do not meet all their needs. Food vouchers would help reduce financial hardship and free up limited funds for necessary travel costs while they await a decision.

This older lady has been homeless but has now been given a council bungalow. Sadly she was attacked in her previous shared accommodation. She would love some help in getting carpet and underlay and door plates in her bedroom. She is struggling to save for this herself as her only income is widow’s pension and state pension. Any help you can give would be gratefully received. Thank you
