J, who is in a family of three living in private rented and struggling financially, works nights and has to travel an hour to work. He must have clean clothes every single day as he works in a bread factory where personal hygiene is essential. His only source of drying is a Calor gas heater which they use with a maiden and move from room to room. The motor on the drum of the dryer cannot be repaired and has been condemned. The guarantee ran out just before Christmas.

Safe Families are supporting this mum who is currently six months pregnant. She has recently moved into new accommodation after spending some time as homeless. Mum has been working hard to try and get the property ready for the baby, but is struggling financially. This request is for a double bed frame as she is currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor with some blankets. Please could you help support this mum? Thank you so much.

K, who is struggling with depression and anxiety, is waiting for her benefits to be processed and is struggling to find any money to buy gas and electricity. She is relying on hubs and food banks to feed her family. Mum is depressed and totally at her wits end. She cannot go to any loan companies because she has no means of paying it back as she has no date when she will get paid next. Please can you help K?
