£130 needed for a storage shed
This single pregnant mum experienced domestic violence and is currently on low income. She has two children who have bikes and outdoor toys currently in the house as mum cannot leave them outside as they could be stolen. Mum needs a shed to store them all as at the moment they are in the kitchen and living room which is causing a risk of accidents for the children. Please can you help.
£100 needed for a vacuum cleaner
This lady is struggling with her finances. She has had a delay with obtaining a visa, which has meant a delay in being able to claim Universal Credit. She is struggling to pay bills and for extra tuition for her son who has additional needs, as he is falling behind at school. She is desperate to keep up with looking after her home for her children, but now her vacuum cleaner has stopped working. She is in need of some financial help to purchase a vacuum to replace her old one.
£200 needed for a laptop
K lives with her husband and two children aged between 7 and 11. Two years ago they came to the country seeking asylum, and are currently waiting for permission to work. They currently only have minimal support. The eldest daughter will be starting secondary school in September, and a laptop will help with access information for homework, as well as completing tasks. The family do not currently have access or the funds to purchase one. Are you able to help?
£200 needed for carpet fitting
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to read this request. F has left an abusive relationship both physical, emotional and financial. She has been living in women's refuge and recently in a hotel but has now been granted a property of her own with a local housing association. Unfortunately the house isn't carpeted and F isn't in a position financially to be able to afford them: she isn't working and her only income is from Universal Credit. Turning her house into a home would mean the world.
£200 needed for a bike, lights, lock, and helmet.
K lives with her husband and two children aged between 7 and 11. Two years ago they came to the country seeking asylum, and are currently waiting for permission to work. They currently only have minimal support. The eldest daughter will be starting secondary school in September. It will be quite a long walk and there are no direct buses. They are seeking support to purchase a bike, helmet, lock and lights to allow her journey to school to be easier.
£200 needed for bankruptcy fees
K is a full‑time carer for her disabled daughter and cannot work. She is overwhelmed with over £30k of debt and, though eligible for a Debt Relief Order, new debts keep emerging. Bankruptcy would give her a fresh start, reduce stress, and help her focus on caring for her daughter. She is seeking support with the bankruptcy application fees.
£200 needed for a washing machine
Due to being homeless M her husband and 7 children have been offered an unfurnished house which does not have a washing machine. M and her husband rely on benefits since her husband had to leave his job due to ill health. M has asked Romero for help as she desperately needs a washing machine to wash clothes and bedding for her children. Please help us support this family at this time so they can have a fresh start which will relieve some of the pressure the family has been experiencing.
£200 needed for gas debt, food vouchers and electricity credit
M and her partner, N, suffer with poor mental health. N is autistic and life can become a little chaotic at times. They receive Universal Credit but were sanctioned for missing an appointment, and a subsequent large payment for council tax debt has left them with no money to cover their living costs this month. Help towards a gas debt payment which is due, along with help to provide food vouchers and electricity credit to see them through to their next benefits payment would be a real blessing.
£150 needed for a heating bill
R is a single man who suffers from autism and also mental health issues including depression following the death of his partner last year. He has been working with Crosslight for some time and his mental health is gradually improving. £150 towards his communal heating charge would be a real boost just now to make sure that he continues to improve and make progress with us.
