£200 remaining for a fridge and a microwave
M is an older lady who works part time and is in receipt of Universal Credit. Due to mobility issues she had to reduce her working hours. She has been in very unsuitable unfurnished temporary accommodation for a number of years but has now been offered the opportunity to move to sheltered housing. She will need to buy white goods and other furniture but has no savings and is also burdened with overdrafts and credit card debt. Can you help M to purchase some essentials for her new home?
F, who is single and lives on his own in a council flat, recently lost his job and is living on a very tight budget. He receives Universal Credit, however, this leaves him with only £20 to live on after bills have been paid. F heavily relies on a foodbank to get his groceries, due to how little he has left. His bed has broken and he cannot afford to replace it. Your support with £175 will help him to buy a replacement. Please can you kindly help with this donation?
The lady has recently moved to the different council property, but the flat is unfurnished and there are no white goods either. K has struggled for over three months without a refrigerator, washing machine and cooker. She had finally managed to get a used fridge and, thanks to the help of St Vincent de Paul, K will get a washing machine. However, further help is needed with the purchase of a cooker and your help will be greatly appreciated.
M lives with her husband; they both have health problems and are living on benefits. They receive Universal Credit and she gets Personal Independence Payments. Her fridge has broken down and she urgently needs a new one but doesn't have the funds to buy one. It would be wonderful if she could get help towards a new fridge.
