This young lady sought assistance from the St Vincent de Paul centre, following the cessation of a prolonged domestic violence ordeal. Given the damage incurred during this period, she is in need of a new bed frame and mattress. Additionally, we are collaborating with sister agencies specialising in domestic violence to provide comprehensive assistance. Any support extended to this young lady, during this challenging time, would be greatly appreciated.

Total needed £200Following a recent heart attack, three months ago, this gentleman finds himself in need of ongoing assistance. We are urgently requesting a regular food parcel, a kettle and a microwave. Our client was referred to us by Peabody after an outreach encounter where he was soliciting passers-by for food or financial aid. Although he has a flat, this gentleman's health condition prevents him from being able to work. Any support provided during this challenging time would be greatly appreciated.

Total needed £200L and her young son were referred to us by the school. Mum has health issues and receives benefits. She bought a washing machine on Facebook sales, but it broke fairly quickly and she has now been without a washing machine for nearly a year. L cannot always get to a launderette so she tries her best to hand wash items in the bath. Mum would really appreciate your support in helping to purchase a washing machine.

Total needed £200This family would really benefit from your support. There are seven children in the household, ranging in age from a one year old to a fifteen year old, and mum is currently eight months pregnant. As you might expect, the household finances have been and still are under immense pressure from rent and energy costs etc., along with day to day issue of shoes, clothing and food costs. An air fryer and microwave will at least ensure the children can have a hot meal every day.
