R, who is struggling with debts that she cannot possibly pay back, is on a zero hours contract and has unreliable hours and income. She has sought help from Citizens Advice and is hoping they will help find the best debt solution and support her through the process. This, however, takes time and she is finding it impossible to afford food and essentials after all her bills are paid. Please would you consider helping this lady with a supermarket voucher to help her get by? Thank you so much.

S is working hard to manage her monthly budget and pay into her CAP (Christians Against Poverty) plan to pay off her debt. Her son, who is in his thirties and has learning disabilities, moved out of home just before Christmas, into a caravan on a local farm. He has had a job at the farm for several years and is trying to be independent. S has helped her son out with extra costs, including a deposit for the caravan and moving costs. Two bottle of gas are needed for heating and cooking at a cost of £89 each.

Our client, I, is forty two years of age and had a breakdown after her mum sadly passed away, as she cannot see a way forward without her. She has a son who is twelve and he is helping his mum as much as he can. Mum has come to us for support with debt advice, which is a massive step for her as she normally never leaves her home, but she knows she has to sort her debts for her son's sake as she is afraid of losing her home. Mum struggles to buy food, gas and electric out of her benefits, once her ongoing bills have been paid. Thank you!

This gentleman found himself homeless due to his mother recently dying. His sister is allowing him to live in her static caravan until he can find employment. The two gas bottles that are needed are now empty and he does not have the funds to replace them. Please can you help? Thank you.

F is a single mother of three children who is struggling with her mental health, social anxiety, and a leg injury that limits her mobility. These challenges, combined with missed Universal Credit appointments, have resulted in a £500 reduction in her payments. This financial loss has left the family in significant hardship. Please can you help them with gas, electricity and food?

TS, a single male who has been rough sleeping on and off for the past three years, and battling with severe health issues of the liver and lungs, is also faced with unstable immigration status. He is in need of £100 to buy food, a warm winter coat and to top-up his Oyster card to attend his immigration appointments. If your support is received, our client will be issued a voucher covering the food and clothes and a top-up Oyster card. Your support is much appreciated.

R was made redundant from his job a year ago and, at the same time, his dear wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She has recently died, leaving him bereft. R is struggling financially as his wife was the main earner. Our food bank is helping him out, but a donation for supermarket vouchers will allow him to use his existing funds to help pay towards the funeral arrangements, and tide him over until his benefit application is processed.

Our client, who is fifty two years of age and is single, is suffering from PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) after suffering many close family bereavements in a short space of time. R will soon be starting trauma focused therapy and is hopeful that this will help her. Because of the PTSD, she has only been able to have temporary contracts with work, due to having to take time off work when she is not in a good space mentally. Sadly, R has recently lost her job; has to wait six weeks for her benefits and currently has no money at all.

Our client is a young person who has recently been granted status. As he will need to wait a few weeks to receive Universal Credit, he needs help affording food until then. £100 would help him tremendously with this, as we would be able to provide him with a voucher for food shopping.
