This single mum, who is on Universal Credit and struggling financially, is in need of a bedroom carpet for the children. She has had to take the old one up due to damage and it being dangerous as the children could trip on it. Mum painted the floorboards to make it look nice, but it is cold and they keep getting splinters as a few boards are broken. The council will repair, but there is a waiting list. Please can you help?

This single mum is on low income and has five children with additional needs. Father walked out and took some household items several months ago, which has affected the children enormously, to the point that the teenagers reactions were self harm and to break things in the house, as they could not understand. Mum, who is absolutely stressed and exhausted, has no cooker and is relying on neighbours to cook for her. Please can you help?

This single mum is on a low income and has five children with additional needs. The children's father walked out several months ago, leaving them distraught. The children have smashed and destroyed items in the home as they cannot cope or understand, and currently are in need of a carpet as the one they had was soiled and needed throwing out. The living conditions are really poor as mum is so stressed and exhausted, and the boys' bedroom is just floorboards. Please can you help?
