£0 remaining for a school uniform
This Syrian asylum-seeking family has been moved to Leeds and the parent asks for £120 to purchase a school uniform for her child who has been given a school place. The school colour requirements are unusual, so not easily purchased, and the costs are high. Mum asks for funds to purchase the uniform items online. As mum has other children awaiting school places, the cost for this will be extremely difficult for her to reach on her limited benefit. Please can you help the child to have a good start in school?
C is a single mum of three children who is living in a cold, damp house with no carpets. Mum and the children rarely use downstairs as it’s too cold with stone floors. C isn’t working, has no savings and only receives Universal Credit. We would love to make her house into a home and can carpet it for free, but just need a little help with the cost of fitting. Any help would be an absolute Godsend.
C, a single mum with one child, has a number of psychical disabilities including bulging discs and a trapped sciatic nerve. Her only income is from disability benefits and she has no savings. C has no carpets in her bedrooms, hallway and kitchen. Carpeting her home will impact hugely on her mental health and overall wellbeing. We have an offer of free carpets, but need help with fitting costs. Any support would be very gratefully received.
C is currently living in a two bedroomed house with her daughters, but there are no floor coverings anywhere in the house. Due to the condition of her property, Social Services has removed her children and given her an action plan to enable her to get them back. This includes carpeting the house and C will never be able to do this without help, as her only income is Universal Credit and she has no savings. Please can you help us to bring this family back together?
