£200 needed for a washing machine
A is single with two sons, one unemployed, one autistic. For the last 5 years since being evicted, they have been living in unsuitable temporary accommodation but they have now been moved to a more acceptable flat but it has no furniture and limited equipment. As she has no savings, please would you help towards a washing machine which is not provided.
£200 needed for a washing machine
A has been in temporary accommodation, but has now moved into a social housing property of their own. A's partner is bed-bound and therefore A spends a lot of time looking after her. The couple do not have a washing machine, which is a particular problem due to the medical needs of A's partner. However, they have a very limited income and can't afford to buy one. Your support would mean they can keep their clothes and bedding clean without costly and time-consuming trips to the launderette.
£200 needed for a cooker
A is a refugee living with his wife and two daughters. He is unable to work due to disabilities, which he developed after having polio as a child. The family are in receipt of Universal Credit, but this only covers the bare essentials. He had bought a second-hand cooker for the family to use, but this has now broken down, and the family is struggling without a way to cook food for themselves. Please could you help support this family to purchase a new cooker and help them to feed their children.
£200 needed for a washing machine
A is a mum to three young children under the age of five, two of whom have complex medical needs, and the family is being supported by social services. Unfortunately A's washing machine has broken beyond repair, and due to her low income she can't afford to replace it, which is making keeping the family's clothes and bedding clean very difficult. Your support would mean she could rely on clean clothes and bedding without costly and time-consuming trips to the launderette.
£200 needed for a fridge freezer
F has been in temporary accommodation, but has now secured a social housing property of her own. However, the flat is completely empty, and she has no furniture of her own or savings to buy any. Her most urgent need is for a fridge freezer so that she can keep fresh food safely, and store bulk food, allowing her to cook and eat more healthily and affordably.
£150 needed for a wardrobe
N has just moved into a new rented property with her three children, however it is unfurnished and she doesn't have much furniture to bring with her. She has a low income which barely covers essential living costs, so she can't afford to buy any new furniture. She would really like a wardrobe to be able to keep her and her children's clothes tidy and protected, rather than being scattered across the house.
£200 needed for a cooker
R has just moved into a council house after being homeless for a number of years. He does not have a cooker in the house and is having to cook all meals using a microwave, this limits the range of what he can eat. R has had a hip replacement and has a multiple personality disorder. He is in receipt of Universal Credit which just covers essential costs but he is unable to purchase a new cooker. Are you able to help?
£120 needed for a shopping voucher for food and toiletries
My client has been struggling to find work for a year now after losing his previous job due to his health conditions meaning it was no longer suitable. We have been assisting him to ensure he is in receipt of all the help he is entitled to, however he has been refused Personal Independence Payment. He is trying to remain positive and hopeful that he will find a job soon. In the meantime could you possibly help this gentleman with a voucher for food and essentials whilst he continues his search?
