Partner contacts person in need and gives the item so desperately needed
It's meant that he can stay warm without worrying about high heating bills and without worrying about filling up a hot water bottle that's only going to warm up one small area at a time. It's safer for him as well.

£200 needed for an air-fryer, basic cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, and installation of a washing machine
M left home 3 years ago following domestic abuse from a sibling. After 3 years in the Territorial Army she was recently moved to an unfurnished flat. M is currently struggling to find work and is dependent on standard Universal Credit. Her years of abuse have left her feeling unable to trust others, very isolated and with low self esteem. £200 is needed for the delivery and installation of a washing machine, an air fryer and basic cooking/eating items to help her make a fresh start.
£155 needed for paint
S started using drugs at 13 following childhood trauma. He was in prison for 15 out of the last 20 years. When he left prison last year, he went into rehab and his life was transformed. S has not used drugs for a year and now volunteers with the police and King’s Trust. He is on benefits and Acts435 donors paid for a birth certificate for him. This enabled S to sign for a flat. He moved in this weekend. His family is helping him to decorate but he has run short of funds for buying paint.
£200 needed for an ASDA gift card for petrol, food and household items
This family faces severe financial pressure as their 4-year-old undergoes cancer treatment, requiring 80-mile return trips for ongoing care. One parent has reduced work hours to support their child. They have three other children, some with additional disabilities and SEN needs, and rely on benefits. An ASDA gift card would provide much needed relief and help cover petrol, food, and essential household items during this difficult time. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
£160 needed for a shopping voucher for food, toiletries and clothing
My client has incurable lung cancer and has recently started chemotherapy to try and prolong her life as long as possible. She has been unable to work for months and is struggling to pay her bills, afford food and buy clothes needed due to weight loss. We have assisted her to claim disability benefits, however she is still awaiting assessment. Could you possibly help her with a voucher toward food, toiletries and essential clothes, whilst she waits for her benefits to hopefully start? Thank you
£200 needed for a freezer
L, a refugee from Iraq who has been in our area for four years, needs support to buy a freezer as she moved to settled accommodation. She is still struggling with the English language, and has many physical and mental health problems, meaning she cannot work. L and her husband, who have two sons aged 11 and 7, are on a limited income and there is not much left after paying rent and essential bills. Please can you help. Her 11 year old is autistic and requires specific foods which they need to keep in the freezer.
£110 needed for a washing machine
This poor woman has had a horrific experience. She was abused by her now ex-partner. She has been left with Psychosis, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, severe anxiety, and cannot even leave the house easily. She fled to her mother's house, but was asked to leave, so now finally has a place for herself to rebuild things. We have provided a cooker, but she desperately needs a washing machine too, as she suffers from incontinence. Helping her with this will help her mental and physical health, but also her dignity. Thank you
£150 needed for a freezer
We have a young lady who lives with her 3 young children. She escaped from domestic abuse and is trying to start afresh. The current home she lives in doesn't have much in it, as she can't afford much. Sadly her freezer has stopped working, and she really could do with replacing it, but unfortunately cannot afford to. Please can we help her and her family?
£150 needed for a cooker
We have a lady who lives with her 2 adult daughters. They were previously made homeless, but now have managed to get a two bedroom house. Unfortunately, there isn't a cooker in their home and they really cannot afford to buy one, along with all the other costs of moving into a home with nothing. Please can we help this lady and her family out?
