£0 remaining for a washing machine
My client is a single mum with a very young child whose partner walked out on her and left her with debts. Her washing machine is fifteen years old and has just broken, and she doesn't have any money to buy a new one. Mum has seen a replacement for £270 and her mum has said that she will pay the £70 if she can get the rest. Please can you help?
H is a single parent who is struggling with bills while bringing up his teenage son. They have just moved house and need a cooker, but do not have the funds for this large item. H suffers from heart problems and is currently a client of Christians Against Poverty, working through ways to address his debts. His new home is an opportunity to make a fresh start, and a cooker is a much needed item for the two of them.
We have a resident in supported accommodation who has found social housing, which is ideal for his needs. He is now very independent and looking for voluntary work after suffering a sustained period in an abusive relationship. We are seeking funds to furnish his flat and so far have been unable to secure a washing machine. Securing this item would help him to settle into his new flat and start his new life.
This lady is a client of our Christians Against Poverty debt centre. As well as her financial difficulties, she has suffered a series of family bereavements and a relationship breakdown. Her mental health has also suffered, and she is not currently able to work. This lady is trying to help her nine yea -old son through these difficulties by redecorating his room, but can't afford to replace the old, tattered carpet or underlay. Can you help her please?
