£200 needed for a storage unit
N is a pensioner with cancer who is currently homeless due to falling into arrears. Currently, his essential items and paperwork are in a storage unit which is in arrears, and he is not allowed access to these items until the cost is paid. In addition, his wallet was recently stolen, so we are requiring this paper evidence in order to apply for some new ID to assist him with his health and housing. Your compassion is greatly appreciated! Your donations would clear the arrears and pay for an additional month of access to the storage unit.

£150 needed for carpet
This family with a 10 month old baby was living in a touring caravan in dad's parent’s garden. There wasn’t a safe place for the baby to sleep.The family have since been moved into a house where the baby has his own room. It is wonderful that there is space for him to move and develop, however there is no carpet in baby’s room. This makes practising walking and moving more difficult and potentially unsafe. Mum and Dad both suffer with poor mental health following a traumatic birth which resulted in mum contracting sepsis. The family are now doing well but would like support to get carpet for their baby’s bedroom.

Please can you help?
