V came to London to improve his job skills, but unfortunately, upon arrival all his documents were stolen, including his laptop, ID and bank cards, which caused him to become homeless. V is slowly getting back on his feet and has recently been housed, but has nothing in his kitchen so needs a toaster, pots, pans, cutlery, glasses and plates. V's place is in Zone 5, making travel to his support network quite pricey, so he plans to get a one month Job Centre travelcard until he returns to work.
Still £175 left to donate
Total needed £175This lovely family, with two little girls aged three and five, has been moved into our area of London by the authorities. The flat has minimal furnishings and no washing machine, which is challenging with little ones. The request for a machine was refused by the council. The family is struggling on a low income and needs the help of our foodbank to survive. This young mother is battling poor health and a washing machine would make life a lot easier.
