K is a refugee based in York. She is in need of a replacement mattress. She has been trying to use an inflatable one for some time but it is now damaged and unusable. She has seen a suitable one that can be delivered but as a single mum she will struggle to afford it. Any help would be greatly welcomed. Many thanks.
V is a working single mum who is paid 4-weekly and is being failed by the Universal Credit system. Because she is paid 4-weekly, the system deems her to have been paid twice in one month so does not pay her the Universal Credit that she is entitled to, meaning that she loses a total of £700! This includes her rent payment. Help is needed for her to pay household bills as well as provide food for the family. Also, she now has Covid, which makes life even harder.
D is a single mum with 2 teenage children. Her fridge/freezer has broken down and a second hand one has been sourced at the price mentioned. It is hard for the family, who are on a limited income, and a replacement fridge/freezer will make a huge difference.
C is a single mum with three school-age children and one older child, who is unemployed. Two are going to a new school and so need a full uniform change. C works part time because of the children, but is on a low income and has mental and physical health challenges to manage alongside the needs of her children. She saved for the uniform little by little and has managed to get the majority, but she does not have enough to buy new shoes and sport shoes for school at the end of the holidays.
