Homeless man has only the clothes and trainers he stands up in. He is very keen to get work and needs to purchase smarter clothes and shoes to wear to interviews and a set of day to day clothing and footwear.
Our client is a single mother of 3 and unemployed. She needs £120 to add to what she has to buy winter clothing and shoes for her children and herself. Her children haven't got any good clothes for cold weather.
N's mental ill-health and feelings of isolation leave her vulnerable, and she has been taken advantage of. Her latest boyfriend got access to her email and used her name for purchases. This interference also caused her to lose claims for the benefits to which she's entitled. Citizens Advice are trying to sort out the mess, but in the meantime N has no money for food, heating or adequate clothing. A donation to buy food and winter clothes, supervised by a social worker, would be extremely helpful
A lovely lady with 5 school age children has been rehoused and had to leave everything behind. With 5 children at school and a new baby she is desperate for clothes for the kids- in particular for school uniforms for them when schools have been organised. £120 would get some much needed essentials for them all.
Client just got a job after a very long time of unemployment, and needs to buy a jacket and shoes. He's starting the job on 1st November 2018. He has used his savings to buy some new clothes, as he had no suitable clothes to wear for work, but his jacket is ripped and his shoes are not good either.
C's husband had a bad fall from a roof and damaged his spine. C is very supportive and is having to cope with caring for him and with his depression while working part-time herself to meet household costs. This means that they are struggling with their finances and that C will not be able to afford clothing for winter weather without help. A kind donation for winter shoes and a warm jacket would make a big difference towards keeping her healthy and positive about her situation.
Having moved to the UK over the summer, E and F are really excited to start school. As their family was forced to leave everything behind, they do not have the money to buy their new school uniforms. Please donate to help them look smart and make their parents proud on their first day.
A and her two children have just moved to the UK. The children have unexpectedly been offered a place at a school rather than college. This is a great opportunity for them but means they now face the cost of a uniform which they hadn’t anticipated. They would really appreciate being supported with the funds to buy the right uniform to help with the transition into a new city.
