£0 remaining for a double mattress
This vulnerable man struggles with mental health issues and finds it difficult to manage his benefits. He is in need of a double mattress as he is not sleeping well. He receives Universal Credit, but has no spare money to buy a replacement. Please would you consider helping him? Thank you.
B is a single parent who has recently moved into a new property with his four year-old son. They are looking to make a new start together following dad recently securing custody of his son. B was previously housed in temporary accommodation by a charity that helps those at risk of homelessness. He is looking for work, as well as helping his son to settle into a new school. B's only income is Universal Credit and Child Benefit, and he needs some help with furnishing their home, a fridge being his priority.
M has been struggling with Long Covid for two years, as well as other serious health issues. Her fridge freezer has broken beyond repair and other recent problems mean that she has no savings left to replace it. She is on Employment and Support Allowance and Personal Independence Payment, and has a teenage daughter. Being without a fridge freezer is increasing M's anxiety about her situation, her health, her daughter's future and her finances. Getting a second-hand replacement for it would relieve some of her burdens.
N, who suffers from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, has depression and has self-neglected in the past. He receives Employment and Support Allowance and Personal Independence Payment. N needs to buy a sofa bed, bedding and drawers so that his niece come out of foster care and live with him when she soon turns sixteen. He receives mental health support and is receiving assistance to obtain white goods and carpeting. N has worked really hard on his mental health and living conditions, to be able to provide a home and support network for his niece. Thank you.
