£0 remaining for a washing machine
M and her children were living with her family, but fled their home, due to familial conflict and honour-based abuse. They were staying in temporary accommodation, but have now secured more permanent housing. They don't have a washing machine, which means keeping their clothing and bedding clean, and involves regular time-consuming and costly trips to the launderette. M is already struggling financially, as the sole carer for her children, and living independently for the first time.
This young adult in a Ukrainian refugee family asks for help with £200 to purchase a refurbished washing machine as the previously donated one has stopped working and is beyond repair. The family are studying English and, as they are using their limited benefits to cover other costs, have no savings, having left all their belongings in Ukraine. Please can you help them to avoid the everyday stress and high cost of managing without and continuing to work towards employment and integration into UK life?
H is single and trying to live independently, but with autistic and mental health issues. He is grossly overweight and binge eating on unhealthy meals. A care package is being sought. H seeks a tall fridge freezer so meals can be provided by carers and stored safely, to bring some order to his life. This will encourage him to eat healthily, to lose weight and manage more by himself. Support for H would be another step towards changing his circumstances, and greatly appreciated.
This couple, who are living off Universal Credit and both on long term sick, are currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor, as they cannot afford to buy a bed frame. They would appreciate your help in buying one. Thank you for your support.
