This lady, who has bipolar, is on benefits. Until recently she was living with her father, but when he died the rest of the family turned their back on her and withdrew all support. She has now been allocated accommodation but, of course, is starting from scratch. This lady's most urgent need is for a washing machine. Please can you help?

This man, who became homeless when a relationship ended, slept in his work van for eight months. Unfortunately, a client didn't pay his bill, which spiralled this man into debt and he lost the business and ended up on the streets. This man has been in sheltered accommodation for two years, but now has his own flat. He receives Universal Credit and, due to other items he has had to buy, cannot afford a washing machine. With your help we can get him a second-hand machine with a warranty. Thank you.

N, an elderly lady who is originally from Ghana, was recently widowed and is now living alone with no relatives. She is a retired nurse and is living on her pension with little savings, so is struggling to pay the bills. N lives in an old house which is in need of modernisation and her very old fridge freezer has irreparably broken. This lady has a special diet, due to health issues, and is anxious about how she can manage this without a working fridge freezer.

S, a single man who has his adult son living at home with him, has health issues and medications which need to kept refrigerated. His current fridge freezer is old and the fridge has stopped working. It cannot be repaired so S is asking for support to be able to purchase a new one. He is on benefits with no savings and being supported by his local foodbank. Any help to support S in his need would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

L lives alone and is struggling to afford a replacement fridge freezer for her home. She has worked hard in being the sole carer her young seventeen year old son, as a single mum, which has meant that she has not been able to work. Recently L's son has been placed in supported accommodation, which she hopes will better support him with his neurodivergence. L's old fridge freezer was significantly damaged by her son, as he struggled to manage his overwhelming feelings and lashed out. Please can you help her to replace this appliance?

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.

F is currently doing really well working with Christians Against Poverty to pay off her debts. Unfortunately, the ceramic hob of her cooker has been permanently damaged and she has been advised it is unrepairable as the parts cannot be replaced. This means that F is now relying on the limitations of a microwave to cook meals for her and her son. To be able to return to cooking from scratch would help a lot with the current budget she is working from. F doesn't have sufficient funds to buy another cooker, so help to fund a new one would mean the world to her. Her adult son has agreed to help with the remaining amount needed, and F has been saving a little over several months too.
