This gentleman, who has learning difficulties and lives with his family, is unable to work and is on Universal Credit. His bed has broken and he is currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor.

Still £100 left to donate
Total needed £100This lady has two grandchildren in her care and has not managed to secure any further financial support/benefits. She is claiming Employment and Support Allowance and Personal Independence Payment, but is struggling to pay her bills and with the increase in food costs. This grandmother is currently sleeping on a mattress with springs coming through and is getting hardly any sleep throughout the night. This lady would be extremely grateful for funding for a new mattress so that she can get a good night's sleep ready to support her grandchildren each morning.
