£120 needed for money food, rent, bills for refugee family

BG is a refugee from Iran, and her husband and 3 children have just joined her in the UK. However, their benefits were stopped and they have no source of income until February 18th. BG is worried and scared about how she will be able to feed them, pay the rent that is due, and keep the house warm and powered. They have received food vouchers, and we are trying to access social services support as well, but any financial help would be a huge relief, and BG would be so grateful.

£120 needed for a wardrobe and storage

J was referred to us by the local food bank. She is struggling financially and has no storage for her daughter, which is causing much anxiety. They had been forced to move with not much notice a couple of years ago and since then had slowly been buying all their furniture. Having a wardrobe wasn't a priority but J's daughter's mental health has been affected by the move and having her clothes strewn around isn't helping her move on. J has many issues but getting storage would help so much.
