Sandwell Churches Link

This client is a 39-year-old father who has recently separated from his wife. Following a diagnosis of poor mental health, he has been unable to continue working and is now reliant on benefits. He shares the care of his two children, aged 10 and 4, but his reduced income means he is unable to afford essential school uniforms, including winter coats and school shoes for the new term. We are requesting support towards these costs to ensure the children can return to school with all they need.

This Christians Against Poverty client is a female living alone with two children aged 13 and 3 years. The eldest is in secondary school. The client is in receipt of benefits and currently unable to afford a uniform for her daughter. Please could you give towards school uniforms?
