£0 remaining for a British Sign Language interpreter
M, who is deaf, also does not understand written English which makes her life very isolated. She is a single mother who came to us with a significant debt problem. We have struggled to support her and need to pay for a British Sign Language interpreter to explain the details of her debt options. Registered interpreter’s charge £130 per session. An interpreted appointment will enable M to find a way forward and release her from the stress of her accumulated debt.
S, who is pregnant and due to give birth in a few weeks, has sciatica, arthritis, PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), anxiety and depression, impacting on her comfort, mobility and mental health. She is currently sleeping on a sofa with her eighteen month old disabled daughter, making it difficult to sleep. S has limited finances, due to rent shortfall being recovered from her benefit. She awaits the outcome of applications for Personal Independence Payment for herself and Disability Living Allowance for her daughter. £200 is urgently required for a bed and mattress.
