£200 needed for living room carpet
J moved in to his new tenancy September 2025 after 15 months of homelessness. He was provided with some essential furniture from Glasgow City Council but the flat has no carpets throughout. J suffers from asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease so working is a struggle for him, so he is on a limited income. Carpets in the flat will make a huge difference to make the flat feel more like a home. It is very hard to buy large items for a flat when on a limited income, so we would love to help J in this way.
