This request is for a family who are living on Universal Credit so have a very low income. They only have two plates and sets of cutlery which they need to keep washing up to take it in turns to eat. They also have no microwave and only one pan to use to cook. We would love to help this family to have a more functional kitchen set up with a suitable amount of equipment, including a microwave, kettle and toaster, pots and pans, cutlery, crockery, utensils and tea towels.

K is a single mum with seven children who has just moved into a new home after having been made homeless. She would really like a television, but cannot afford one with the limited amount of money she has. K is trying desperately to set up their home. Please can you help?

E, who is married and lives with her husband, suffers from diabetes, cancer and sclerosis, and has to use a mobility scooter to get around. They have a low income and use a good pantry to eke out the little cash they have. Their bed has broken and needs replacing, but they cannot afford a new one. Her husband is sleeping on the floor on the mattress, and she is on a chair because she cannot get down to the floor or up again.
