£200 remaining for a washing machine
This lovely young lady is single parent to a little four year old boy who has just started school. The council has moved them into a completely unfurnished flat. Mum has spent all her money on uniform and second-hand furniture, and now has to use the foodbank to get by. Friends have found her a fridge-freezer, but one of them suggested she asked us for help to get a new washing machine. Mum could not believe that we would help, as the council has refused.
This request is for a lady, D, who has initially come to the country from Syria, as a refugee, and is reliant on income through benefits. This limited income is not enough to provide for her and her family. Mum has one son, aged five, and three daughters, aged eight, seven and one. Mum's eldest three children are currently in primary school and have recently started the new term. It is for this reason that mum needs your support towards school equipment and clothing for her three children.
Our applicant, a young person from Chad who is undocumented/appeal right exhausted, is homeless and has no recourse to public funds. He urgently needs funding to buy food and other essentials, such as phone credit and clothing. He also needs funding to cover travel expenses to his solicitors' office. Your support would allow him to buy food and travel to important appointments with his solicitors and support network, as we would top up his Oyster card.
FK, a domestic violence survivor, is a lone parent who visits the weekly food bank to help feed her three children. Her husband walked out on her and the children several years ago, to live with another woman. The children tried to build a relationship with him, but failed with disappointment. FK's fridge freezer has broken down and she needs a replacement for food preservation. Please can you help her and bring changes to her life?
