This single mum has significant medical problems causing her almost continuous discomfort, which is currently exacerbated, due to the poor condition of her mattress. Mum receives Child Benefit, Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment. She moved to secure tenancy, but incurred debts, due to misunderstandings, and continues to pay back arrears, which is putting a huge strain on her low income. A new mattress would enable her to sleep better, or at least get more rest, enabling her to cope with the daily challenges she faces.

N needs a new phone as hers is old, has needed many repairs and is on its last legs. She is a single parent who receives Universal Credit and has a lot of health issues. It would really help her to have a reliable phone, as this will make it easier to access the Universal Credit journal and to continue with her journey of sorting out her debts, with the help of Crosslight.

This single mum has significant medical problems causing her almost continuous discomfort. She receives Child Benefit, Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment. Mum has moved to a secure tenancy which is completely unfurnished. She has incurred debts, due to misunderstandings, and continues to pay back arrears, putting a huge strain on her low income. Mum's four year old has outgrown her cot and now sleeps with her.

This young man is unemployed and actively seeking work with the support of a Christians Against Poverty (CAP) Job Club. Since losing his last job, he has run into debt with the cost of living increase, and keeping up with bills has been a struggle on Universal Credit. This young man is working with CAP to become debt free and needs £90 to fund a Debt Relief Order.

M, an asylum seeker, is a single mother and a cancer patient. She moved earlier this year from private rental into Home Office accommodation. The council was paying for her furniture storage while her asylum claim lasted, so that she could have it ready when she starts renting again. Last month, her refugee status was granted and the council are asking her to start paying her own bills for the storage. It will take one month for Universal Credit to start, so she needs help just for this month.
