This young lady has autism which manifests in heightened sensory sensitivities. Therefore, the texture of wet dishes, the smell of detergent water, and clinking pots etc. is overwhelming for her. Added to this, she is obsessive about germs and cleanliness. As this young lady lives alone, she finds washing up very stressful and often painful. Her mental health team feel a dishwasher would relieve some of the stress of daily living, but as she cannot work, and is in receipt of Personal Independence Allowance, this is unaffordable. Please will you help?
