She has no savings and is being supported by her local food bank. Any support to help N clear her debt would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

This young person is a care leaver who has lived an unsettled and often traumatic life. He requires support to obtain a removals service as he is unable to fund this himself, due to a low income, benefits and ongoing debt payments. Due to being estranged from his family, following childhood safeguarding issues, this young person has nobody that he can rely on or ask for support. Please can you help him with removal costs and help him to live safely and comfortably?

This gentleman has recently moved into Brighton from out of area and had to leave everything behind in order to move. He is in a hostel at the moment and only receives basic Universal Credit with sanctions. This gentleman is working with support and would really appreciate a voucher to enable him to get some basic clothes and shoes.

Safe Families are working with a family with limited financial means, who are expecting their fifth child. Mum says she has everything she needs for her new baby, apart from a travel system, i.e. a pushchair and car seat etc. Helping them with the cost towards the travel system of their choice would be such a wonderful way to bless this family. Any donation would be very much appreciated. Thank you so much!

Mum is a single parent to her three daughters, one of whom has quite high health needs, and the family are very isolated. The oven has broken and mum is struggling to make affordable meals for her family. She is struggling with her finances and isn't able to cover the cost of a new oven. We would like to help mum with the cost of a gas oven which would make a big difference to this family, as mum would be able to cook healthier and more economical meals. Please could you help this family? Thank you.

F, who has been allocated an empty property, has four dependants and no recourse to public funds. She is a part-time worker and finding it very difficult to afford the essentials needed in their home. F is fed up with the situation of not having a wardrobe and sofa in their home, due to struggling financially. She is seeking our help, as she is suffering from mental distress because of the situation. Thanks for your support.

C is actively working with Crosslight to get her debts in order. Unfortunately, her cooker has completely broken down and after receiving her benefits and paying her bills, she has little to live on. Please can you help with this donation? Thank you.

Z, who is forty two years old, is living on her own as she has left her abusive husband. She is unable to work, due to multiple physical and mental health difficulties, and is dependent on benefits. Z does not have sufficient funds to replace her failing fridge freezer. A donation would help her to safely store perishable food items, which will aid both her physical and mental health.

C has five children and receives Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payments, due to a brain condition that can affect her mobility, along with other debilitating symptoms. The local council has refitted her kitchen, but have removed her gas cooker which they deemed unsafe. This has left C with no means of cooking meals for her family. She would like to replace it with an electric cooker, but money is very tight and she cannot afford to pay for it herself. Your help would be much appreciated.

This forty five year old man was an HGV driver until he was diagnosed with a brain condition requiring urgent treatment, causing the loss of most of his eye sight, meaning he cannot work. He is working with Sense to assist with his loss of sight and his mental health is affected by this. This man wants to return to fishing, a childhood hobby, so he can get out of the house and be in nature. We believe the purchase of boots and waders is essential for his wellbeing, and is of primary importance to keep him engaged in his debt plan.

T, who has acquired a huge rent debt with the local council, has recently stopped working due to her contract ending. We have tried to claim Universal Credit for her to help with the housing but, as her husband receives a state pension, and their son, who resides with them, is in receipt of Universal Credit, the family is not entitled to any further financial support. Donations from Acts 435 would reduce the amount owed, meaning T can manage the remaining debt a little easier.

T, who lives with her grandson, aged seven, has not been able to work in the past six months as she has Carpel Tunnel syndrome and is waiting for surgery on both hands. Her injuries are a result of repetitive strain injury picked up during the work she did. T wants to get back to work and has struggled to pay bills during this time, made harder by deductions for the extra bedroom. Her new two bedroom flat has no cooker and it would be great if we could support her with this to make the move complete.

J, who became a Christian one year ago, gave up his job to retrain as a Teaching Assistant because he wanted to work in a more caring role. His income is limited, as he's training as an apprentice. Our diocese are running a men's weekend and we have secured a place for him at a vastly reduced price, but it's still too much for him to be able to attend. J's faith is on fire at the moment and we would love for him to be able to go. We are a church in one of the most deprived areas of the country and just don't have the funds to pay for him.

This young man is twenty three years of age. His partner left, leaving him a three and a one year old to care for, and he is struggling with debt. He has a house, but there is only a cooker and fraying carpets. If dad had a fridge freezer he could keep food fresh and make wholesome meals for the family, perhaps doing batch cooking. This young man went for a job interview, but needed to start at 8am so had to refuse because his daughter does not go to nursery until 9am. Please can you help this family?

L is working with the debt centre after building up debts in a domestic abusive relationship. She is making payments, but her income is very low. L, who has anxiety and struggles to leave the house, has chronic pain and is on very strong painkillers. Her garden has become overgrown and dangerous in parts, which is having a negative impact on her mental health. We have people at church who have offered to help for free, but need funds in order to clear the garden and replace stones, banking etc.

B, a single lady, has recently moved into a small flat and is struggling financially. She is unable to afford essential household items, including a fridge freezer, which would significantly ease her situation. Without one, she faces increased financial pressure and risks falling deeper into debt. A fridge freezer would help alleviate this burden by enabling B to store food more efficiently and better manage her budget, helping her work towards greater financial stability.

J has just moved into a long-term property after living in temporary accommodation, having fled domestic violence. She has spent all her savings on furniture, beds, white goods and household items, and her income is very low as she only works part-time. J's new council property is not carpeted and she's worried about heating bills etc. now the weather is changing. We have an offer of free carpeting, but we need help with cost of fitting them. Any help would be amazing.

C has suffered a burst pipe which has flooded her house, ruining the carpets. She has no contents insurance to protect her and pay for replacements. Her only income is Universal Credit with no savings and no family to help out. We've had an offer of free carpets from a major carpet wholesaler, but we need help with the fitting costs. We would be ever so grateful for any help offered.
