£0 remaining for an electric cooker
D and his partner have separated and are co-parenting their two little girls, always putting them first. Dad works on a zero hours and minimum wage contact, so never knows how much his wage will be from week to week. He has had an electrician out to look at his cooker, as the oven is not working, and the cooker has been condemned. Please could you help D to replace the cooker, as he has no other way of cooking for the children? The appliance shop where the electrician works can do a great deal. Thank you!
D is fifty two years of age and suffers agoraphobia which means he cannot leave his home as he fears leaving his safe place. His social worker has referred him to us as now that the she has been in his flat. She was very shocked by the conditions he is living in - he doesn't have a fridge freezer and had sour milk and butter in his cupboard, as he has nowhere else to store it. D cannot afford a fridge freezer out of his benefits and has no family to help him. Please could you be the family he needs?
Our client, K, is fifty four and is a lovely gentleman who has learning difficulties and doesn't really understand managing his money. We are supporting him with budgeting advice and he is really enjoying learning how to save a few a pennies out of his benefits so his money lasts longer. However, he just cannot manage to save up for a fridge freezer after his broke, and is storing milk in the sink filled with cold water, as he thinks this will keep it fresh. K has nobody else to help him. Thank you!
O is a refugee from Syria who is helping in all our various support groups as a translator and in many other ways. Unfortunately, his laptop has broken, which hinders him from doing much of his support work. O would really benefit from having a laptop again, but can’t afford this himself as he is also caring for his wife who is ill. Thank you so much for helping him with this.
