£0 remaining for a washing machine
This gentleman has extreme mental health issues. He was receiving Employment Support Allowance and Personal Independence Payments but had them stopped and they are just being reinstated. He is now working with support services after a long journey, but his washing machine has broken and he is washing clothes in the bath. He had a broken spine several years ago and his back remains extremely painful, so this is damaging his health. He would be so grateful for your help.
S is on benefits and, as all her money goes on bills, she has no money left over to be able to buy a mattress. The current mattress is in really poor condition and S can feel the base of her bed, which has now given her a very painful back. Please can you help her to replace the double mattress?

This family, consisting of father, mother and three teenagers, all have learning difficulties and are unable to work. They are receiving benefits, have no savings and live in a social housing flat. They have a lot of debt because they struggle to budget on a low income. Christians Against Poverty is putting together a debt repayment plan for them. Both their washing machine and double bed are broken and we can replace them with good second-hand replacements for £100 and £60 respectively, through our local supplier DFS.
