£0 remaining for beds
This client had to leave her home, due to safety concerns caused by her ex-partner's alcohol addiction. She also endured domestic violence during her marriage to the children' father. Mum, therefore, suffers from trauma and is receiving support to help her settle her into her new home. Her children's bunk beds broke during the house move, so they are currently sharing a bed with their mother. Mum is in receipt of Universal Credit and struggling to get by. Could you please assist with the cost of beds?
This young woman has had her world turned upside down. She did work in the supermarket Lidl, however, her partner developed a condition which meant he lost his sight and hearing. She went from being an independent mother to being a full-time-carer. Mum doesn't complain and just wants what's best for her family. When their washing machine and fridge freezer broke in the same month, they had nowhere to turn for help, so approached our charity. We have provided a fridge freezer, and we can also contribute towards a washing machine, but we can't fund all of it. Please can you help?
E and her partner have been without a cooker for over eighteen months since it suddenly stopped working. They are unable to replace it because they are on benefits and have a low income. In fact, E and her partner have had to recently access a food bank for a food parcel to help their situation. They have been using a microwave since their cooker broke, which often means they are buying more expensive and less healthy food. Help from Acts would make an enormous difference to their wellbeing.
S is a refugee from Iran who has recently received a positive decision and is now looking to start work as an interpreter. In order for her to start working and building her life in the UK, she needs to pay for two DBS checks, which is outside of her current budget. S would be very grateful for your support.
