£0 remaining for a double bed, a kettle, a toaster, a TV and a slow cooker
T has been living in a temporary accommodation for a while after a house fire where she lost everything she had. T has now been rehoused and has managed to get a few bits and pieces for her new house from friends, but is in need of a double bed and mattress, a kettle and toaster, a television and a slow cooker to fully settle in her flat. She is on a low income as she hasn't been working, as she is still in trauma after the loss of everything. Your support will go a long way.
J is forty three and this year had a terrible accident which left him needing back surgery He then lost his job and his marriage broke down, leaving him homeless, meaning his whole world had fallen apart in a matter of months. J has been offered a flat and the rent will be paid by Universal Credit. His ex-partner will not allow him to take any items from the home. J has nothing for the flat except a blow-up bed his friend has gifted. New carpets will keep the heat in and make it homely.
