£150 needed for home heating oil

£200 needed for a fridge and a microwave
M is an older lady who works part time and is in receipt of Universal Credit. Due to mobility issues she had to reduce her working hours. She has been in very unsuitable unfurnished temporary accommodation for a number of years but has now been offered the opportunity to move to sheltered housing. She will need to buy white goods and other furniture but has no savings and is also burdened with overdrafts and credit card debt. Can you help M to purchase some essentials for her new home?
£200 needed for bunk beds and mattresses
T recently managed to bring his two kids to the UK after a long separation period. However, T had to provide adequate accommodation, which he managed to rent and pay the deposit for, and this has left him struggling financially. T requests your help so he can buy bunk beds and mattresses for his two kids.
£180 needed for a utility bill and new glasses
N has had a tough year and recently was in a nasty car accident and the fallout has meant that she has no money until December. She urgently needs to pay a £100 utility bill- if she doesn't, the arrangement she was on where they match her payments will fail and she will be in major financial problems. She also desperately needs new glasses and even with her benefits she isn't going to be able to afford them and she is stressed at not being able to see. These cost £80. Please can we help?
£200 needed for carpet
K fled from domestic violence, leaving everything behind. She has been in temporary accommodation but has now been given her own flat, but it is completely empty. She has been able to get furniture second hand, but not any carpet. As she is on benefits and a tight budget she cannot see herself getting any carpet for some time. She would love to be able to make the main room a comfortable warm space by having a carpet. Any help you can give would be gratefully received.
£200 needed for three chests of drawers and two pairs of curtains
This family have just moved into new accommodation. C is a lone parent who is living with her two young children and receiving Universal Credit and Child Benefit. She had to flee her family home, due to domestic abuse, and moved temporarily into a single room in a hotel, but has now secured permanent accommodation. At this stressful time, C would greatly benefit from some donations towards bedroom furniture, namely three chests of drawers and two pairs of curtains, to help make a home for her children.
£120 needed for a food shopping voucher
G is about to be discharged from hospital and has nowhere to go. His relationship has broken down and he has been evicted from his home. We are hoping the Council will be able to house him in temporary accommodation as soon as possible. Citizens Advice are doing what they can to help as he has a number of debts and has just been hit with a huge tax bill, so has no money to buy food. Could you please consider supporting this gentleman with a voucher towards food, drink and toiletries? Thank you.
£200 needed for a bankruptcy fee
E, a single disabled mum of two disabled children, is drowning in debt. Citizens Advice have advised that the best course of action to tackle her debts is to go bankrupt, but it costs a lot of money, money that E does not have. Please may you consider supporting this family with £200 toward the £680 bankruptcy fee so that they can rid themselves of the worry and stress of being in debt for good? Thank you so much.
£200 needed for a bunk bed
B is a recently single mom of three children. She has managed to rent a small flat and needs to buy a second hand bunk bed for the children, because there is not enough space in the room to fit two beds. B lives on a limited income, so she needs your help to be able to afford the bunk beds.
