J is thirty four years old has just been given a tenancy agreement after going through rehabilitation for the last year. He is so proud of himself for overcoming his drink problem and getting this chance of a fresh start. J is on benefits so cannot afford to buy very much. His friend has helped him buy some bits, but he desperately needs a cooker. He loves to cook and this is a good distraction for him, and keeps him busy. Please could you help him find his love for cooking again? Thank you!

P is a single mum with a young teenage daughter. They moved to the area after fleeing domestic violence, have settled here very well and mum is starting to make friends in the community. P is on benefits as she is unable to work, due to illness. She budgets right down to the very last penny and there is no room for error. P has nothing left after she has paid her priority bills and bought essentials. Her fridge freezer has broken and she has no way of replacing it. Please can you help her?

Our client is currently living in temporary accommodation with her three children. Her benefits have been sanctioned and mum is only getting £50 per week to support her family. She is desperately trying to get her benefits reinstated, as she believes the sanction to be a mistake. Our client can hardly afford to feed her children and top-up the meters for warmth. This family also desperately need warm blankets and new bedding, as well as food and gas. Please could you help, as mum has no family to support her.
