This family is in need of a living room carpet as the house it has moved into only has floorboards. Mum is on a low income and in arrears with gas and electricity.

Please can you help?
£200 needed for carpet fitting
P, who is in recovery from alcohol and substance misuse, has been clean for several months now, after a period of being street homeless which had driven his addiction. He has now been granted his own place, but as you can imagine, he is starting from scratch and needing everything to set up home. We have sourced various white goods for him, but his flat has no carpets. We have an amazing offer of free carpets but we just need a little help with the cost of fitting them.

We are looking to support him to find resolutions to his situation, but help towards some Lidl food vouchers would be much appreciated in the interim.
