£0 remaining for a double bed, a kettle, a toaster, a TV and a slow cooker
T has been living in a temporary accommodation for a while after a house fire where she lost everything she had. T has now been rehoused and has managed to get a few bits and pieces for her new house from friends, but is in need of a double bed and mattress, a kettle and toaster, a television and a slow cooker to fully settle in her flat. She is on a low income as she hasn't been working, as she is still in trauma after the loss of everything. Your support will go a long way.
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.
