C, a mum of two children aged twelve and thirteen, suffers from depression, anxiety and panic attacks, and is a recovering alcoholic. Recently made redundant, and nearly evicted, she is separated from her husband who currently has the children living with him whilst his wife has been dealing with health concerns. Che receives Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment. She is moving to be closer to her children and needs furniture, including a table and chairs to make a home for her family. We are requesting £200 to help with this new start.

R, a young, single mother with a small baby, is currently relying on basic benefit income through Universal Credit and is experiencing financial hardship. She has recently been housed and, although she has a fridge with a small freezer compartment, this is filled with milk for her young baby and mum has nowhere to store frozen food for herself. R would appreciate help to purchase a small freezer.

TM, who has a mental health disability and is signed off work, has been in touch with the Christians Against Poverty team (CAP), due to escalating debts. CAP will work with him to try to reduce his debts and support him with a personal finance plan to help him. TM, who lives alone in rented accommodation, struggles to afford to travel to a launderette most weeks, and his washing machine has been irreparable for a long time. TM is desperately in need of a replacement and we have sourced one for £199.99. Please can you help?
