O and her fifteen year old daughter moved to the UK from the Ukraine when it became unsafe to stay. Her husband and other family have remained in the Ukraine. Mum and her daughter were first housed through the Homes for Ukraine Scheme, but moved into their own unfurnished, rented flat, two months ago. O works as a cleaner, and is also receiving Universal Credit, but money is tight. She would be really grateful for a vacuum cleaner to keep the flat tidy.
Still £75 left to donate
Total needed £100L is a parent to two girls, aged two and six years old. They live in a council flat where their washing machine recently broke down and they do not have enough money to replace it. Their main income of Universal Credit and Child Benefit, is taken up with the day-to-day cost of living and does not leave enough for such an expense. The machine cannot be repaired at a reasonable cost. Neighbours have kindly been helping with laundry, but this can’t go on for much longer. A replacement washing machine would be a huge help.
Still £135 left to donate
Total needed £175We are working with a new single mum of a two year old who has just moved to her first own home, which is council owned. There is already a huge issue with rats which the neighbours have told her is pre-existing. The council have said they will only address this issue if she pays £110, which she doesn't have, having already had to pay out a lot just to set up her own home, having owned nothing of her own previously. Mum doesn't feel her daughter is currently safe, and is really distressed.
