£200 needed for a cooker
Our beneficiary has moved back into her home after being temporarily rehoused for six months due to domestic violence. She has no appliances, as her abusive partner sold what he could for money due to a substance addiction. Our beneficiary is not able to cook meals or wash clothes currently, and is trying to rebuild her life again. Any help will be appreciated to obtain a cooker.
£200 needed for bed and breakfast accommodation, bedding, towels, clothes and food
This young gentleman found himself homeless after being thrown out of his family home. He has suffered years of abuse from his family, and this has given him the push needed to start a more settled life. We have worked with our partner organisations to find him new accommodation, but while waiting we would like to house him in bed and breakfast and provide him with bedding, towels, food and clothes.
£200 needed for a bed and mattress
Our client has ongoing health problems including complex multi skeletal issues from a childhood car accident, and also suffers from stress and anxiety with panic attacks. He has been sleeping on a second-hand mattress on the floor, which is not conducive to his back and widespread pain issues. Our client needs a good supportive bed and understands that he will have to find the shortfall.
£200 needed for a second-hand cooker
We are supporting a couple who have three teenage children, one who has special needs, and they have been without a cooker for seven weeks. Dad has had to give up his job of twenty years, as he awaits major surgery, and mum has also had to stop working to care for him. They are on Universal Credit and have to cook using a microwave and air fryer. They are frustrated and want to get back to work as soon as possible. Please help if you can.
£200 needed for a mobility scooter
This gentleman suffers with Cerebral Palsy which causes severely decreased upper and lower limb mobility. We would like to fund a mid-range scooter which would enable this gentleman to venture outdoors regularly and keep himself active physically and mentally. Being on benefits, he cannot afford to fund this himself and, unfortunately, the client has previously been a victim of exploitation which subsequently prevented him from acquiring a scooter on the Motability Scheme.

This couple and their twenty three month old baby were living with their parents, but had to be removed from that accommodation due to a dispute.

£200 needed for carpet fitting
P is having to move home from a privately rented property into a property with a local social landlord where the rent is cheaper and the property is more suitable for her needs, as she is disabled and has mobility issues. Sadly, P's new house doesn't have carpets down in any of the rooms and is not in a position to be able to afford to put them down as her only income is from benefits. We have an amazing offer of free carpets, but need a little help with the fitting costs. Thanks for reading this.
