£200 needed for delivery and Installation of a new carpet
Our client and their young child have recently been housed in a new property, which they are very happy about. Unfortunately, the property was completely empty so they have had to buy a new fridge freezer, washing machine and cooker. The property is also without carpets, which is making it very cold, but after using up all their money on white goods, they are left without any funds for their carpets. Please can you help?

T is moving into her first home and is expecting her first child. She is very nervous and struggles with her mental health and Autism.

£200 needed for a fridge freezer
J is a single man aged 57. He is registered as hearing impaired and has other health conditions. His income is only from welfare benefits including disability sickness benefits. He lives in social housing. He is very isolated and has been without a fridge freezer for some months. His last white goods were second hand and had broken. Without these facilities he unable to store groceries and therefore is spending unnecessarily.
£200 needed for a cooker
C has 3 children, the youngest of whom has additional needs and requires looking after during the day. This prevents C from working. Because of that she was already struggling to make ends meet, but then both her washing machine and cooker expired. Your support to replace the cooker would mean that C could cook properly for the family, rather than having to rely on just food which doesn't require cooking, or takeaway hot food, both of which are unhealthy and expensive.
£200 needed for flooring and fitting
M has been living in her home for over ten years, but has never been able to afford any carpet or flooring for the living room, living with a bare floor for all that time. This makes the living room very cold, as well as hard to keep clean. M has been out of work due to health conditions, so has a very low income which barely covers her daily living costs, and in ten years has not been able to save enough to get flooring fitted. Your support would make a huge difference to her living room.
