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.

L has two daughters and a grandson at home. She is a regular attender at her local church club and is never too busy to help someone. L is a carer for her grandson so she is unable to work. She works hard to budget but doesn’t have spare money for extras. Her fridge freezer is broken and she relies on it to help stock up on good quality cheap food for the whole family as well as everyday fridge use. L just needs a little bit of help for her family.
