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 tumble dryer
This single Mum had a tumble drier which has now broken. She has a toddler and a baby on the way with no access to outdoor space for drying naturally. This would help massively with laundry especially on those days when there is not much sun coming through the window and when there is extra washing.
£150 needed for a television
A is a young refugee who has recently moved into settled accommodation after being homeless. A is working hard to build a new life in the UK and is currently studying English at college. He has very few belongings and would really benefit from support to purchase a TV, helping his flat feel more like a home. A is a big football fan and would love to be able to watch the World Cup games. A TV would bring enjoyment, comfort and connection as he settles into his new home and community.
£200 needed for a carpet
M is a refugee from Syria who has been in the UK for two and a half years and has leave to remain. He has recently been moved into new accommodation where there is no carpet/flooring in the main room which is unsafe. He only receives vouchers for food so is unable to get any floor covering himself. M regularly volunteers at places, and is keen to be able to work. Please can you help him feel at home?
£200 needed for a fridge freezer
Mr E is a refugee who relies on Universal Credit. After a long period of unstable housing, he has recently moved into a council property. As the property is unfurnished, he is in urgent need of a fridge freezer to safely store food and maintain a healthy diet. Any donation, big or small, would make a significant difference and help him settle into his new home with dignity and stability. Thank you for your support.

Mrs Z is a newly granted refugee who recently moved to Leeds with her family of three. They rely on Universal Credit and have used their limited income on essential items, moving costs, and first month’s rent. They are now unable to afford a washing machine. Any donation would greatly help the family settle into their new home with dignity and stability.
£200 needed for a washing machine
L is a single lady who recently moved into the area fleeing domestic abuse so she has no finance or support and is not currently working so dependent on basic benefits. She has now been placed into a social housing flat which is unfurnished. She has been sourcing essential household items from charity outlets but is desperate for a washing machine as she cannot afford launderette services. She is very conscious of her appearance and cleanliness, and is seeking employment so needs to be presentable. Can you help?
£200 needed for driving lessons
Made redundant after years working on the boats by the quay, a devoted dad is struggling to support his young family. With one income lost, his wife is working more hours, and the pressure has deeply affected his mental health—he feels anxious, stressed, and like he’s failing. Determined to rebuild, he wants a new career but needs to drive to access work. He’s saved £250 but needs £200 more for lessons, while Universal Credit is still unsettled—this small help would mean everything.
£200 needed for a table and chairs
M is a refugee from Syria who has been in the UK for two and a half years and has leave to remain. He has recently been moved into new accommodation where there is limited furniture. He is requesting support to be able to purchase a table and chairs as a place to sit, but also to act as a desk as he learns English. He is keen to volunteer whilst waiting for permission to stay. Please can you help his house to become a home?
£200 needed for carpet
E is currently on a Child Protection plan. She has been known to services for a while. E had a water leak in the home in December which ruined her carpet. However, due to E having financial difficulties she has not been able to get a carpet. The floor is currently just hard wood, it is unsafe for the children due to the nails holding the wood down. E and the children have left an unsafe relationship. Can you help them to find safety in their home?
