£0 remaining for a bedroom carpet
L had a house fire on the 22nd of March that gutted the bedroom, and smoke damaged the rest of her house. She has brain damage, as well as other disabilities, and her adult daughter stays with her to care for her. Due to only receiving Employment and Support Allowance and disability benefits, L cannot afford a carpet. Please can you help?
This single mum, who lives in a two bedroom flat with her daughter, is on minimum income. Her electric cooker has come to the end of its life and mum is finding it increasingly difficult to cook. Ready prepared meals are expensive because she only has the use of a microwave. £200 would allow her to purchase a new cooker. Mum is a good cook and enjoys cooking but, without a working cooker, is finding this difficult.
This lady, who is a single mother with one daughter, has moved from Essex to the North East because of the cost of living in the south, and has found a house to rent in our area. Mum is on benefits and is struggling to cope with living cost debts which she is paying periodically. They have not had a cooker since they moved, about a year ago, and mum would like to cook some healthy meals to promote a healthy diet for herself and her growing daughter. Please will you help?
Grandma, who is on benefits, looks after her grandson for half of every week. She is trying to make ends meet, but the fridge freezer has broken and she has no means to buy a replacement quickly, so as to not throw money away on food that can't be stored. They are at a loss as to what to do and would be so appreciative of the help.
