H has recently been granted leave to remain after fleeing a war torn country. She has been living in home office accommodation but has just been granted her own property, she is starting from scratch with virtually nothing. She doesn't have is carpets in the property and she would really love it to be carpeted (she suffers from poor mental health and a cold, damp flat won't be good for this). We can provide the carpets free of charge but we're praying a kind donor will help with the cost of fitting.
