£30 needed for a small chest freezer

X is in debt and would struggle to get more credit, and that wouldn't be good for her. She lost her job in care just before the pandemic and now has to home school a 10 year old and look after her 3 year old. The pandemic has meant it is really hard to find work. X is working with a support worker from the council and is now being supported by Pathways and Christians Against Poverty at Holy Trinity Church. The freezer would really help X with budgeting and food for her little ones.

£75 needed for a Debt Relief Order

G lost her job last October as she was in temporary work. Her husband worked in the same place and also lost his job because COVID-19 meant that demand had significantly reduced. She expected to get another job fairly quickly so didn’t claim Universal Credit but the new job didn’t materialise and they are both struggling to find anything in the very challenging labour market. They have a great deal of debt and their home is at risk. A Debt Relief Order would solve all this but they can't afford the fee. Please could you help?

£100 needed for an electric cooker

K has had to stop work due to very poor health and is a single mum of three children. Her cooker has completely broken so she is having family members cooking meals for her and the children a couple of times a week and dropping them on her doorstep. Otherwise, they are surviving on sandwiches and snacks. Any help you could offer to get a new cooker would be so gratefully received.

£105 needed for a tumble dryer

A is a single mum of 3 children. She was working and at the start of Covid-19 was initially furloughed but now has been laid off. She has also become depressed and is being helped by her GP. Her partner can no longer help out financially for the children as he has also been laid off so money is very tight. She is really struggling to get any clothes dry and has no tumble dryer. Drying everything on the radiator is causing damp so we would really appreciate help in purchasing her a small tumble dryer. Thank you.
