£0 remaining for two single bed mattresses and a sofa
M is a single parent of three children who fled domestic abuse in Poland. The children have significant additional needs; the seventeen year old has Autism Spectrum Disorder and selective mutism, the eleven year old is attending a specialist educational setting, due to anxiety and selective mutism, and the sixteen year old is having specialist support for anxiety. The whole family have been traumatised by their life experiences and are setting up a new, safe home, but they need a sofa and two bed mattresses to make their home comfortable.
This gentleman recently moved into temporary accommodation and is being helped to look for a permanent home. He is waiting for benefits to catch up, so is struggling to make ends meet. His old mobile phone is not capable of being used to communicate with the benefits service, and he has a water bill he can't meet. This gentleman's clothes are all too large for him, as he lost a great deal of weight when homeless. Please can you help him?
A is a single parent who is in poor health, is dependent on benefits and has no savings or family support. He is the sole carer of his children, due to him ending the relationship with mother of the children when he suffered much abuse at her hands, severely affecting his mental health. A manages well on his limited budget, but is in desperate need of a new double bed, mattress and bedding so that he can sleep well and not aggravate his health issues. However, he is not able to afford an appropriate one. Any help is much appreciated.
N, who is a young mum of two little ones, has been abandoned by her partner, and the father of her children, having recently moved to the area, which was not to his liking! She has sought help from Citizens Advice Bureau and they are aiding her to ensure she is receiving the help she is entitled to, and to get on top of her debts. N struggles with her mental health and is alone in a new part of the country. Please would you consider helping this young family with some financial support towards food while they settle into their new lives?
