£0 remaining for increased gas bills
G is struggling to make ends meet after losing his stable, long term job, due to a severe mental health crisis which was triggered by his marriage breaking down. He is struggling to come to terms with not being able to live with, or provide for, his three children. His benefits do not cover even his basic costs of living. G can see some hope in the long term, now that he has been brave enough to reach out for help, but still needs some practical support in the shorter term to maintain this positivity. Please can you help him to pay for his gas bill so that he can cook and have hot water?
S has fled domestic violence and been rehoused, but has no money to buy a carpet for the living room which has bare floorboards. This is the room the children use most, due to the bedrooms needing carpeting. Mum has mats down at the moment, but they are only thin so not much use when the kids want to sit and do some colouring. S is waiting for her benefits to be arranged and her family cannot help as they live too far away. Please can you help?

J is a single mum with one child who is autistic with lower limb dyspraxia syndrome. Mum has been advised to buy a special trampoline that has a swing in it to help her son use his muscles better. However, mum just cannot afford to buy this, as she is on benefits and is stretched to the limit paying bills. J has to keep the heating on, as her son has a low immune system and gets poorly very quickly. Any spare money will go towards the heating. Please can you help?
