£200 needed for furniture
V and her family have recently been granted refugee status and are being moved into accommodation with no furniture or appliances. Her son is chronically ill, and she is worried about managing without the basic items needed for daily living. The financial support they receive is not enough for furniture and white goods, and they are anxious about the impact this will have on their quality of life and their son’s well being. The money will be put towards two beds and a cooker.
£200 needed for moving costs
My client is due to move soon to another city and needs a removal van. She has negotiated a price and has raised some of the funds already. She has been through a lot of struggles including domestic abuse and having a family member who has a life threatening illness.

£100 needed for a mobile phone
N is a single parent with four children whose only income is Universal Credit. They are unable to work at present due to mental health, and are struggling to manage financially due to cost of living and rising household bills. N has no mobile phone which makes it difficult when communicating with multiple services and school. If N was to obtain a new mobile phone they would be able to communicate more effectively with a wide range of support services, making day to day life easier for N and their family.

D was recently referred to us following an extended period of homelessness. D spent some time living in a hostel before he was housed in private rented accommodation.

However he doesn't have a range of essential items and needs support to fund a full set of bedding, plates, cutlery and towels. D is on a very low income and is in receipt of disability benefits, meaning that he is unable to work due to his health.
