£200 needed for carpet fitting
R is a disabled mum of three who has fled domestic violence. For the last three months she has been living in a hotel whilst she waits to be rehoused. Fortunately she has now been granted a property with a local landlord, but unfortunately there are no carpets or floor coverings anywhere in the house. R is desperate to make the house a home, but she simply can't afford the high cost of carpets. We have an amazing offer of free carpets but we just need a little help fitting them.
£180 needed for a microwave, airfryer and oyster top-up
M is a migrant who has been destitute but now thankfully he has been given permission to stay in the UK. He has kidney failure and needs dialysis 2/3 times a week so has had to give up work. The migrant centre helped him to claim benefits and he has found a place to stay. He is trying very hard to remain as healthy as possible and would love to have an airfryer and a microwave to help him do this. He has appointments to go to for his health and for advice so he also needs an oyster top-up.
£100 needed for a mobile phone
M is a single woman and asylum seeker from Ethiopia who was using an old phone a friend gave her, but now it has become a nightmare. It is resetting itself, deleting important files, the battery doesn't last at all, and showing low memory space all the time, forcing her to delete other important documents she needs for her asylum case. M needs your help to replace her phone desperately, and begs for your understanding in her hard times.
£120 needed for a Bengali interpreter
A has minimal English language. We at Christians Against Poverty are scheduled to assess her financial situation and, in order to proceed with the debt help, we need to ensure she fully understands the paperwork she is signing and understands the information we require from her regarding her income and expenses. We had used a volunteer but we have been unsuccessful in arranging the follow up appointment in this instance. Please can you help us to arrange an interpreter.
£200 needed for a door and door frames
This single mum of two children in North Tyneside is living in a house where her ex-partner has caused so much damage to the property. The family is in need of an internal door that he pulled off the door frame, and replacement door frames that he damaged, as well as the necessary equipment to repair these things and paint for the timber door frames. Mum is on her own, has rent arrears and no spare money to repair or replace these things.

£200 needed for a fridge freezer
M is a single lady living in a council bungalow. She is a long-term cancer sufferer and spent nine months in hospital last year.
