£0 remaining for a washing machine
W has just moved into a property, having been homeless. He is very keen to make it into a home for himself and would benefit from having a washing machine to avoid having to hand wash and use the laundrette. He struggles with a respiratory condition which means he is unable to work. His income is Universal Credit and Limited Work Capability Related Activity. In his current situation he is unable to save for this item himself and would be really grateful for your help. Thank you.

K was released from prison just before Christmas and was given just £96 to live on until his benefits payments are sorted out, which may take up to six weeks. He is currently homeless and spending much of his time out in the cold. We would like to provide him with supermarket gift cards so that he can buy food and also some warm clothing. Your help to assist K through this difficult time would be much appreciated.
