£200 needed for a washing machine
E is a young mum with a 3 month old baby and is currently on maternity leave. She has recently been allocated a home of her own but is struggling to get the white goods she needs and is using the neighbours cooker to make meals and her grandparents washing machine to keep clothes clean. She has applied to the local authority for help with a cooker but is in need of a washing machine.
£200 needed for a washing machine
I have started working with S, a single mum of 2 children who has moved recently due to Domestic Violence. She is in a difficult situation and we are providing advice on dealing with her debts. Her washing machine is broken beyond repair and she cannot afford to buy a new one. We would love to bless her by buying a washing machine for her. Please could you consider contributing towards this? Thank you in advance.
£200 needed for carpet
After escaping domestic abuse, this lady spent 18 months living in her van with her dog, who kept her going through her darkest days. She has finally been given a flat, but it is cold and empty. Carpets would bring warmth, safety and a sense of home after so much fear and uncertainty. Your kindness would mean so much to her.
£190 needed for a wardrobe and chest of drawers
F is a single parent. She and her 3 children have recently been moved from temporary accommodation to a housing association property. When they moved in there was no furniture or white goods. She borrowed money to buy some things, and is making do with mattresses on the floor, but would be grateful of help to buy a wardrobe and chest of drawers, as they have nothing to put clothes in.
£200 needed for a cooker
M is a single mum who has recently moved to a permanent council home and is in need of a cooker. Torch and others have already helped with decoration and flooring as M already has debt and the whole process has been quite traumatic. Consequently she is struggling with her mental health because of everything that has happened. Please can you help them with an electric cooker that would allow her to prepare proper meals for her daughter who has special needs.
£200 needed for a washing machine
A lives with her 2 teenage children, she is diabetic and has learning needs. Her eldest child has Autism and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. She is struggling to manage her finances, which we are providing support with but she has been without a washing machine for 2 years. Having to use the launderette is making her financial situation harder, as well as this being physically difficult for her. She would really appreciate your support to purchase a washing machine for her.
£150 needed for chests of drawers, and storage cabinets
S is now a single mum who has just fled domestic violence. She is now living with her three children and has just been offered a place to live. She is in need of two storage cabinets and two chests of drawers for her and the children's bedrooms to keep their rooms tidy. This support will help make their new house feel like a home. Any support will help take the weight off her shoulder while she tries to recover from her past.
£200 needed for a bed and mattress
This woman has recently moved on from refuge after domestic abuse. While this is a significant step forward, the property is completely unfurnished. She is currently on a low income and receiving benefits. She urgently needs essential items including a bed and mattress to make her home liveable. Giving to this request would be a huge support towards helping her safely and sustainably settle into her new home.
£200 needed for a house move
This lady has sadly found herself in an abusive situation for some time. Thankfully through a series of events she has found herself free from this but now needs somewhere to go. Through support from a local mental health charity and a local housing association they have matched her to a property. She is just now seeking the funds needed to move which is a struggle on her low income. This funding, if raised, will pay for a local 'man with a van' to carry the move out for her.
