D is a single mother of four children, they are living on a low income and her cooker has broken. She has tried to put money aside to buy this herself but is struggling and it is having a very negative effect on the family and their ability to eat well.
S is a single mum, with 2 daughters. She is taking out a restriction order against her ex partner, due to his behaviour. She is working with Citizens Advice to clear her debts and looking for some work to fit round child care, but struggling on universal credit at the moment. Her daughters have grown over the summer and the old school shoes are too tight now and their uniform cardigans are short. She doesn't have the funds to replace these after having the girls home over the summer holidays.
CB has been bullied at school and suffers with anxiety; she struggles with friendship groups and keeping friends. Her parents are separated and Mum has a new partner, and C struggles with this too. She recently has started restricting food as she believes this is the only thing she has control over. She is trying to finish her final year at school but worries about her exams. She would really benefit from counselling through EDIFY, but needs support to cover the cost of this.
