£0 remaining for utilities
F, who recently had a stroke and needed to stop working, is receiving sick pay which keeps reducing as the weeks go by. We have applied for Personal Independence Payment for him, but these applications take a long tome to be processed. In the meantime, F and his wife are struggling to make ends meet and she is working extra hours to try and cover their utilities, but feels she should really be at home looking after her husband. They would be so very grateful for any help.
This lady, who is a regular at our centre, struggles with severe learning disabilities and has shown remarkable determination to rebuild her life. We have been working closely with her, and other organisations, to support her main goal of reuniting with her children who were placed in care at a young age. To empower this lady's independence and strengthen her parenting skills, we seek your support to enrol her in an eight week cooking course and provide ingredients afterward, enabling her to practice her new skills.
This woman, who is a long-time user of our services, due to severe physical and mental health challenges, recently moved into a flat with no furniture or essentials, except a fridge. The lack of basic items is worsening her mental health. We recently secured a washing machine for her, but she still urgently needs a sofa, wardrobe and small drawer. Your assistance would greatly improve this woman's living conditions and wellbeing, providing much needed stability and comfort in her new home.
This gentleman, who arrived at the centre in a deeply distressed state, has severe learning difficulties and autism, compounded by a history of alcohol and drug challenges. His immediate needs are critical, and we are urgently seeking your support to secure temporary accommodation for him with a four night stay at a bed and breakfast establishment. This will provide him with a safe and stable environment while we work with our sister agencies to assess and develop a long-term, sustainable solution tailored to this gentleman's needs.
