MH has been suffering from a condition that caused incontinence. She is on a low income and has been sleeping on a recliner chair because she cannot afford a new mattress to replace her old one. MH is receiving support to apply for her disability benefits, but this could take several weeks. She is in need of a new double mattress and mattress protector
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200W is a single person who is living in rented accommodation and currently claiming Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payments. He was in a car accident which caused serious damage to his back, preventing him from working. W's fridge freezer has recently broken, preventing him from storing food, and he now has to go shopping more often, causing severe pain. W would usually limit going out because of this and buy food in bulk to freeze, making his life much easier. A fridge freezer would really help him out.
Still £150 left to donate
Total needed £200S, a vulnerable adult on low income benefits, is struggling financially and in desperate need of a working cooker. His cooker broke over nine months ago and, due to low funds, he has not been able to replace it. S would be very grateful for any help he can get toward purchasing a new cooker. Thank you.
