£200 needed for a skip hire
S has faced multiple challenges over the last year. Unfortunately there was a fire in her home, she was uninsured, and she now needs to clear various items that have been damaged. She also needs to clear the garden, which has become overgrown in the last few months. She would like to contribute the cost of the skip, but is on basic benefits, and there is no way that she can afford the whole amount. This will help her to get some order back into her life.

C is a single parent and has 3 children to solely look after and provide for. She's a part-time Teaching Assistant. Her children are in secondary and primary education. C's washing machine broke down and is not repairable.

£200 needed for a bedroom carpet
We are asking for support for a family in our community. Mum is the sole carer for her child who has autism and speech and communication difficulties. As he requires full-time care Mum has had to give up work placing significant financial pressure on the family. His bedroom carpet is now extremely worn and poses a safety concern. We hope, through generous donations, to provide a replacement carpet making their home safer warmer and more comfortable. Any support would make a meaningful difference
£150 needed for two chests of drawers

Mum is a single parent to three children and has recently moved into a new home. The family are in need of a chest of drawers to provide suitable storage for their clothes and help them settle into their new home. Mum is currently unemployed and managing on a limited income.

£200 needed for a tumble dryer
This young Mum is 23 and has two little children aged 4 and 2 and based in Truro. Mum grew up in instability and has no close family here in Cornwall. She also has historically struggled with depression and anxiety and is socially isolated. Mum has been moved into a private rental which is expensive after 3 years on the Housing register and needing to move. She works as a cleaner so has no spare money to save. Mum has been washing her clothes in the sink but this will not be sustainable long term with two children, she has managed to save for a washing machine but would benefit from a tumble drier as we head into winter and living in damp home, she is struggling to keep up with her washing as her eldest has joined a local school.

This lady has three children, two are senior school age and a young baby. Her washing machine has broken beyond repair and, as she is on benefits, she is unable to find the funds to replace it. She is feeling overwhelmed by the amount of washing she has. Having her baby makes it difficult to access other machines locally. It would be lovey to support this Mum in this difficult situation.
£200 needed for a school uniform, bus fare and food
We are supporting a mother and her 4 year old daughter who live in a house of multi occupancy. Her daughter has just started school, she needs proper school shoes and some uniform items which they can't afford. Mum has four bus journeys a day to take her daughter to and from school, 5 days a week and church on a Sunday, the travel costs £21 a week. We would like to top up her Oyster Card to last a few weeks, buy the uniform items and a supermarket voucher for more fresh food.
