£0 remaining for a Debt Relief Order
J is a single mum who is struggling with debt and her debt problems have led to mental health problems. She is working hard with Christians Against Poverty (CAP) to sort everything out, has a part time job and is engaging really well with the CAP debt process. A Debt Relief Order is the best option J has to deal with her debt, but this needs a £90 application fee, which she cannot afford. If we could help J with this, it would give her hope for the future and she will be able to move on.
H is a young mum with a disabled child that she cares for. The home she lives in has no flooring down at all and H is struggling financially. She has no savings, as her only income is from benefits, and without our help she would never be able to afford to carpet her home. H's house is really cold and damp, and feels unsafe for her child. Carpets down would transform her house into a home. We have an offer of free carpets, but would appreciate your help with the fitting charge.
Our client is currently on long term sick, due to her medical conditions, including fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. She owns her property and has issues with penetrating damp. The costs of the works, in addition to the cost of scaffolding, is unobtainable for our client as she is reliant on benefits, due to her health conditions. A dehumidifier would help to combat the high humidity which is exacerbating her health conditions and help her to maintain a healthy living environment.
