£200 remaining for two single mattresses
B has experienced significant trauma from domestic violence. Unfortunately, the flat mum and her two children are living in has recently suffered a serious infestation of bed bugs, which means they have been forced to get rid of their beds and other furniture. B and her children are now sleeping on camp beds and we would like to be able to purchase mattresses to go along with some bed frames we have been donated. B, who has a low income, receives Universal Credit and some disability benefit.
This Ethiopian asylum seeker, who is supported by a local charity after mental health therapy referral, wants to integrate, volunteer in the local community and access education as an IT student. In Home Office accommodation with no access to public funds, he needs to use the bus to go to college, his GP, our day centre and volunteering, all of which will foster social inclusion. We would like to offer six weekly bus passes and couple of months of mobile data to pursue his studies, pending donation of a laptop which the charity is trying to secure.
Our client, aged fifty nine, is long term homeless and is supported in the asylum process by local charities/community in South London. She is extremely vulnerable and is accessing physical and mental health services. Our client has been in hostel accommodation in North London for several months. She needs to travel to Southwark to access health and asylum support plus legal advice and we would like to provide six weekly bus passes. Our client has nothing and needs basic toiletries, clothing etc. This funding will offer some stability and maintain links to her support network.
EM is currently homeless and does not have any income at all. He would very much appreciate £50 for an Oyster card top-up so that he can travel to a charity in Borough where he attends once a week. EM would also appreciate £50 for winter clothing and £100 for a shopping voucher for food and toiletries.
