M is a single mother with two children. Her daughter has mental health issues and her mum is her carer. The daughter was receiving Personal Independence Payment and her mum was receiving Carer's Allowance, but the Department of Works and Pensions has now stopped their benefits. They have appealed the decision, but M is struggling financially. She has a large debt to OVO Energy. We are negotiating with OVO on a repayment plan for the arrears, but she needs this initial £200 to pay while they await the result of their appeal.
This Ukrainian single parent is finally managing to live independently. Unfortunately, the new property has no carpets, just bare floorboards. Mum is working full-time for the NHS to support her teenage son, as well as her partner in Ukraine with medical expenses, following an injury from fighting in the war. Mum has provided everything else for the home, but does not have any extra money to pay for carpets. Any help that can be given to support the cost would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
X is now a lone mother of two children aged five and three. She is really struggling to pay for the basics, as her husband has just left her and all the bills have been left to her. X is at her wits end and needs support. Please would you help this lady, and her children, with electric and gas water bills, as she tries to get her life back together?
T is struggling financially and physically. Unfortunately, when delivering her son, the epidural went wrong six times so she now has a lot of back pain. T does not know if she can go back to work part-time after maternity leave, as it's too excruciating to stand for lengths of time. She is having trouble lifting a stroller that was gifted to her, as it is heavy and her physio has recommended getting a lightweight stroller. All the second-hand strollers that have been seen are all heavy or the wheels are bowed. T's son is also desperately in need of a cot, as he has outgrown the Moses basket earlier than expected.
