£100 remaining for a bike
B, who has been out of jail for three months and is sofa surfing, is working on her relationship with her children and is walking two hours each way to see them on a Saturday and Sunday. She would love to have a bike, and Acts 435 did provide a bike for this applicant a few years ago, but all her belongings were lost when she went to prison. A bike would make it much easier to see the children, and there is a local bike hub who could provide one for £100.
A has recently moved into his first flat following release from prison. He has got nearly all of the furniture needed, but does not have an oven or a sofa. He is saving for this, but we would like to help him with these items for him and his family to help get life back on track.
Please can you help this young lady who has been a victim of domestic violence and is now having a fresh start in a new area. She has no family support and is suffering from debilitating mental health problems. She is on Universal Credit. She has nothing to cook on and her microwave has now broken too. We have sourced a new cooker and microwave at a good price and she would be very grateful if you could help her purchase them which would really make a difference to her quality of life. Thank you.
W has been living in one of our supported properties for approximately one year; he engages well with our service and is regularly in employment, but has fallen on hard times as his employer needed to downsize and he lost his job. W is now claiming Universal Credit, so is finding it difficult to pay for everything that he needs. He recently lost his smartphone which he needs to access his Universal Credit journal and his recruitment apps.
