£80 needed for a bus pass
A young man is currently homeless and living in temporary accommodation. He is working hard to improve his situation, but he struggles to afford the travel costs needed to attend important appointments and access support services. With very limited income, even basic transport costs can be a challenge. Any support towards travel expenses would make a real difference and help him stay engaged with the services he relies on.
£200 needed for a laptop
This family has three young children and has never owned a computer, relying only on mobile phones. Their youngest child has now started Year 1 and needs access to a computer for homework. The father has also begun college, studying English and maths towards GCSEs. A laptop would support the children’s education, enable both parents to build essential digital skills, access further courses and improve their future employment and university opportunities.
£190 needed for a king size bed and bedding
Our beneficiary has finally been moved to a permanent home after being moved between five different temporary accommodations over the past year. She desperately needs a bed with bedding.

Please support her in getting a bed so she can be comfortable and not worsen her condition.
