£0 remaining for a cooker
X, a single mother, has suffered trauma and violence for which she is receiving psychiatric treatment. She has spent time in the women's refuge. Previously, she had a house and business, with clients visiting, but has now lost all, including all her personal savings, due to her marriage break up. Her current, cramped living conditions and health issues make running a business impossible. X is living on Universal Credit, and cooking on a hot plate, so requires a cooker to cook proper nutritional meals.
Our client has returned to Brighton after leaving a domestic violence relationship and has returned with nothing. He is in need of a mobile phone with some credit, and some clothes and shoes. He is in the process of applying for Universal Credit.
C is a single mother of two daughters who is currently pregnant. She had a difficult start to life, being brought up in the care system, and lives with multiple health problems that make day-to-day living very difficult. There are huge concerns that the pregnancy might not hold as her waters have broken early and she needs as much bed rest as possible. C's oven recently caught on fire and she desperately needs a new one to make healthy meals for her family, but she has no savings or family support. Please can you help?
C, who has additional needs, lives with her husband and two children. After life-changing medical incidents for both her and her husband, there is significant financial strain on the family. Regularly reliant on Foodbank, the family are concerned about Christmas. C is trying her best to save money each month to purchase a new bed for her son, as the current one is unsuitable. This money would be used to purchase a more suitable bed so that they can afford the daily/weekly essentials.
