Total needed £200N has two children, with a third on the way, and has recently become a single parent. Because of that she is currently staying in temporary accommodation, which although it is largely furnished has no washing machine. She has very little income which barely covers food and bills, so she can't afford to buy one herself, and launderette costs are unsustainable. Your help would mean she could keep on top of the family's washing, and they could rely on having clean clothes and bedding.
