£0 remaining for counselling
This gentleman is a dedicated volunteer who has severe learning needs that have impacted his adult life. Recently he suffered the loss of his father, which has left him deeply affected. With limited family support, he struggles to regain stability and does not fully understand his financial responsibilities, leading him into a downward spiral. At St Vincent de Paul, we are urgently seeking assistance to provide this gentleman with six one-on-one counselling sessions, which we believe will help him regain stability and work towards recovery.
X is a single mum with four children who suffers with a blood clotting disorder and is awaiting an appointment with the vascular consultant, regarding limb amputation. She has a budget with Christians Against Poverty that is helping her regain control of her finances. Recently her washing machine has broken, which is very inconvenient with a big family and limited mobility. X doesn't have any savings yet and we are asking for financial help towards buying a new washing machine.
M, a single mum of three children, has been working with us concerning her debts and we have managed to secure a Debt Relief Order so she can now have a fresh start. However, mum has been renting a cooker which is really not cost effective, and the hire company are now taking it back which means she could be left without cooking facilities over the Christmas period. We would love to purchase a cooker for M so that she can look forward to Christmas with her girls and truly have a good start to the new year.
