£100 remaining for household bills
My client, who suffers with depression, works part-time as a cleaner and travels daily to get to work at a cost of £81.00 per month for her bus ticket. Unfortunately, having paid for the monthly pass, she lost it on her way home and has had to pay for another one. This extra cost has put my client into financial crisis and she is struggling to pay for food and bills. We have managed to get her a food parcel, for which she was grateful, but any further funding support would be appreciated

This family are asylum seekers from Afghanistan who arrived in Newcastle yesterday. They have some limited furniture and beds, but no toaster and, crucially, no television for the children to watch. Their carpets are very dirty and the little girl has already got a nasty rash which they feel is due to the dirty carpets. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
This gentleman has been in temporary accommodation and is being supported by the Homeless Team and Housing Association to secure a bungalow. He has mobility issues due to damage caused as a victim of warfare and uses crutches to mobilise; he is currently working with an Occupational Therapist for equipment he needs within the home. He is in need of support to purchase an electric cooker, which he cannot afford due to his low income and the costs of moving.
