£150 remaining for a carpet
P, the father of three young children, has just been housed following homelessness. He needs a carpet for the sitting room as there are just bare floorboards which are not in good order. Should this request be granted, it would allow this family some comfort in their new home, after a very difficult time, and help them to settle in their new surroundings. Thank you!
T is a single mother, living in rented accommodation and currently claiming Universal Credit and Child Benefit. She has been living in her property for the last two years and when she moved in, she was able to get second hand wardrobes for herself and her son, but these are now falling apart. T has another baby on the way (due in early September) and would like a safe place to store the family's clothes, without the fear of the wardrobes collapsing on them.
M has suffered serious mental ill health for years. She was still working, but this became so severe and made worse by being in a violent relationship and needing to flee. As a result, she accumulated debts which she was unable to pay back, as she was then on minimal benefits. M is slowly getting back on her feet and is now working with Christians Against Poverty. We have applied for a Debt Relief Order, so that she can be debt free, but she need the funds to complete the application.
Our client doesn’t have any photo ID and would really like to apply for a passport so that he can use it as proof of ID for work. He would also like to work towards travelling to see family, so having the passport would really help him with that goal.
