£0 remaining for temporary accommodation
A, an asylum seeker who had to leave his family in Yemen, has been with our organisation for five months. He received his outcome three weeks ago and received notice from the landlord that he should leave the house on 7thof March. A is looking for accommodation to cover bed and breakfast and has applied for Universal Credit, but he might have to wait more than a month for the benefit to come through. This request will cover one week of temporary accommodation.
This lady, who is a regular at our centre, struggles with severe learning disabilities and has shown remarkable determination to rebuild her life. We have been working closely with her, and other organisations, to support her main goal of reuniting with her children who were placed in care at a young age. To empower this lady's independence and strengthen her parenting skills, we seek your support to enrol her in an eight week cooking course and provide ingredients afterward, enabling her to practice her new skills.
This woman, who is a long-time user of our services, due to severe physical and mental health challenges, recently moved into a flat with no furniture or essentials, except a fridge. The lack of basic items is worsening her mental health. We recently secured a washing machine for her, but she still urgently needs a sofa, wardrobe and small drawer. Your assistance would greatly improve this woman's living conditions and wellbeing, providing much needed stability and comfort in her new home.
This gentleman, who arrived at the centre in a deeply distressed state, has severe learning difficulties and autism, compounded by a history of alcohol and drug challenges. His immediate needs are critical, and we are urgently seeking your support to secure temporary accommodation for him with a four night stay at a bed and breakfast establishment. This will provide him with a safe and stable environment while we work with our sister agencies to assess and develop a long-term, sustainable solution tailored to this gentleman's needs.
