£0 remaining for a washing machine and a microwave
X, who we met at the toddler group at our church, is living on a very low income and struggling with anxiety. She disclosed that she is really worried about the situation at home, and is in a dispute about her benefit income with an ex-partner. This is being resolved, but X has been living with only part of her benefits for weeks. Her partner took the microwave and washing machine from the house when he moved out and X has no finance to replace these. Please could you help?
Safe Families are supporting a newly blended family who have had to adjust really quickly to sudden changes as they have become a family of ten. The family are living in a three bedroom property and the youngest child, aged two, is sharing a bed. The family are struggling financially and we would like to support them by providing the youngest child with a new toddler bed, mattress and bedding. Please could you help? Thank you so much.
Dad is a single parent looking after his four children. Safe Families are working alongside dad to complete general maintenance around the home and improve the conditions. The family, who are struggling financially, would really benefit from a replacement fridge freezer, as the current one is spilling water out at the bottom and leaking all over the kitchen floor. The freezer door is icing over and sticking shut so the family are unable to access their food. Please could you help?
This family had to flee a private, fully furnished, rented house, due to their daughter witnessing a stabbing; the court case is still pending. Mum is in need of wardrobes for herself and her daughter and two sets of drawers. At present, everything is still in bin bags, which is causing a lot of added stress, as this is a very tidy family on a very low income. Mum is depressed and her daughter is struggling with mental health, due to the trauma.
