Are you able to please help her with a voucher so that she can buy food and toiletries?
£200 needed for a sofa and cushions
C has recently been moved to new accommodation with her boys after divorce proceedings. The apartment has no furniture and although she was able to take beds and a small table and chairs with her she said they are very old. However, she has no sofa at all and hence she made this the priority in terms of furniture required. She is in receipt of Universal Credit but does not have any money left over to enable her to buy the bigger items that she needs. Thank you so much for reading this.
£200 needed for a washer/dryer
This gentleman in his 50s with ongoing health problems was found sleeping rough. He was assisted into temporary accommodation, but it's been a hard two years moving from address to address, often far from his roots. Now he has obtained a permanent tenancy but is without funds to furnish it. We would like to provide him with a washer/dryer as his health problems make it difficult to visit a launderette and the costs are also high. Your help would be hugely appreciated.
