£0 remaining for a mattress
D, who is currently sleeping on the floor, has no bed or mattress and so he doesn't really sleep at all. His mental health issues are quite severe and if he doesn't sleep, his behaviour can become quite unpredictable. D has done so well since coming out of prison and is working with us to start a new life. A mattress would make a huge difference to him. He isn't working at the moment and so his £350 per month benefits can't manage a mattress. If we can help, that would be amazing!
F is a single mum who was fled a war torn country and been granted refugee status in the UK. She has been living in temporary accommodation and hotels, but has now been granted a home for her and her daughter. F's daughter has chronic asthma and the house has no floor coverings down, which is causing her to have asthma attacks. We have an offer of free carpets that will make all the difference to F and the health of her child, but need your help with the fitting costs. Thanks in advance for reading this.
N, who had a house fire in June, lost everything and, sadly, was uninsured. She has been living in a hotel with her three children and it has been really challenging. Fortunately, she has found a new home with a local social landlord, but it comes without floor coverings. Because of N's low income, she simply can't afford to buy carpets. One of her children is disabled and she is desperate to make the new house into a home. Carpets would be an important part of that. We have an offer of free carpets, but need your help to pay for the fitting.
Y has been living in temporary accommodation with her young son after fleeing domestic violence. She has been offered a property, but is starting from scratch. Her only income is Universal Credit and she has spent what little savings she had on moving into the new home. The property has no carpets down and Y is worried for the health and safety of her son. He has asthma and is a bit of a live wire! Carpets down would make the home warmer and safer. Any help would be gratefully received for the fitting of free of charge carpets.
