It is such a relief having a washing machine again, as laundry was such a difficult task to do for those who have been supporting me. Your support has brought much ease for me and those supporting me, and I am very grateful.

£200 needed for a bedroom carpet
We have known Y well for the last couple of years as a guest of our service. He has regularly used our food drop-ins and laundry services, as he was sleeping rough for over a year. We have helped him with medical issues and clothing too. Y finally has a new small flat he has moved into and we would love to bless him with a carpet for his bedroom as he seeks to settle in and begin to look for employment.

This young woman is homeless and currently living in shared accommodation. She had her TV and passport stolen. Her passport is what she used for ID.

This family of both parents and five children were relocated for their safety after abuse. The father receives Personal Independence Payment and a child Disability Living Allowance.

£180 needed for a sofa

£75 needed for a storage unit
L is an expectant mother who is working hard to provide a safe and nurturing home environment for her child (under 2 years old). The family would benefit greatly from a toy storage unit to help organise toys and children's belongings within the main living area of the home. Having suitable storage would create a more structured and clutter-free space, making it easier for L to maintain the home and support her child's play and development.
£150 needed for food and utilities
Ms D is on a very low benefit income. She is looking for work but this is proving harder to find than she had thought. Her basic Universal Credit does not cover her costs leaving her unable to pay for her gas and electricity and in addition she is going without food. Please can you provide a donation to help Ms D pay her British Gas bills and buy food from Lidl.
£200 needed for a lounge chair, footstool and bedding
This young man spent three years in temporary housing before recently securing his own flat. Unable to work due to severe depression and trauma, he budgets his limited income well but lacks funds to furnish his empty home. We are requesting donations to purchase a comfortable lounge chair, a footstool, and some warm bedding for him. Having a proper, comfortable place to sit, relax, and read will make a massive difference to his daily wellbeing and help turn his new flat into a real home.
£200 needed for a washing machine
This wonderful young couple and their autistic son have been navigating difficulties with the education system as no local suitable school is available. They ended up in debt trying to work their way through the difficulties and added expense of home schooling, and the inability to bring in that extra wage. Which they are trying to address. And then the door fell off their washing machine. It would be amazing to ease some of the pressure on this young family by removing this expense.
