Our client, I, is twenty eight years old and a mum to two children. She works part-time around the school hours, as she feels It's important to teach the children a good work ethic, plus working gives her a sense of independence. Universal Credit pays her rent and tops-up her wages, but this still leaves little left for household items. Mum has no wardrobes for the children and really struggles for storage, causing chaos in the bedroom. She has asked for support with a wardrobe and small chest of drawers. Please can you help?

AW has been referred to us by Keyring who are supporting him. He would like some help to buy a bed and a mattress as he is currently sleeping on the sofa in his front room because his bed is broken. AW is on benefits, due to his physical and mental health, and has considerable debts.

Our applicant, who has multiple physical and mental health difficulties, recently lost her son, who was her only family support. Due to her mobility difficulties, she is being moved to a bungalow, but as she is on an extremely low income and doesn't have enough to live on, she is unable to afford any white goods. Our applicant's current washing machine has broken down and a replacement would be invaluable. Any donations to enable her to secure a new machine would be gratefully appreciated.

JH is an elderly gentleman who receives Pension Credit. He recently moved into a ground floor flat, due to being bullied by his private landlord and his health issues. He did purchase a second-hand cooker, but it does not work and the person he bought it from is not answering his calls. JH, who has numerous health issues and has had a recent diagnosis of bowel cancer, needs a cooker to cook healthy meals, but has no family to help.

K has had to move out of private rented accommodation with her three children, due to major damp and water ingress issues which were so bad they caused a small electrical fire. The council has rehomed them, but they have to start from scratch, including replacing their clothes, due to the damp and mildew. There are no white goods in the accommodation and there is no money to reach all that needs to be covered. A cooker and a washing machine has already been sourced, but K is still in need of a fridge freezer.

This single mum is living at home with her little girl and is trying to rebuild her life after struggling with substance misuse. She has been engaging so well with support, and is trying to get on top of the home conditions. Mum is struggling financially and is really behind with her washing so is feeling overwhelmed. She would love a tumble dryer, as the flat that she is in is very unhygienic and damp. This would mean she can quickly and safely dry the clothes, keeping them from smelling damp. Thank you for your support.

This single mum, who regularly comes to our food pantry, has finally been given a home, however it is unfurnished. We have been able to source furniture, putting requests into the church, and supplied flooring, but we have not been able to source a bed and mattress for mum. Please could you help?
