£0 remaining for a Debt Relief Order
Our client has been struggling for a number of years. Having recently divorced, he is now living on a really low income and desperately needs a fresh start, but has debts from that relationship that are holding him back. He is on such a low income that saving more than £10 toward the fee for a Debt Relief Order is impossible for him. Once the debt is cleared, he is going to have more to live on, and his life will be sustainable; going forward, which he is excited about!
J has come from supported living where he resided for eleven months. Previous to this, he lived in his car as he was suffering serious mental health issues. J is now trying to get his life back on track and has a new property but it has no flooring down. His only income is Universal Credit and he has no savings. Flooring in the property would greatly improve his mental health; currently his home his cold, damp and miserable. Carpets have kindly been supplied, but any help with fitting costs would be a huge help to J.
C is a single mum of three children who is living in a cold, damp house with no carpets. Mum and the children rarely use downstairs as it’s too cold with stone floors. C isn’t working, has no savings and only receives Universal Credit. We would love to make her house into a home and can carpet it for free, but just need a little help with the cost of fitting. Any help would be an absolute Godsend.
B is a single mum of two fleeing domestic violence. Her only income is Universal Credit and she has no savings. Mum has effectively had to start her home again from scratch, which has been a real challenge. The house she is now living in has no floor coverings down, which is far from ideal as her children are very active and there is a risk of injury. We have an offer of free carpets, but need help with the fitting costs. Any financial support would be very gratefully received.
