£0 remaining for a second-hand washing machine
J came out of prison six months ago and has been doing well, working two jobs and living with family. The hours for one of her jobs have reduced and she cannot live with her mum anymore. J has moved into her own flat, but is struggling to furnish it all on a very low wage. She has applied for other jobs, but has not yet been successful. J needs a washing machine to help her set up her new home. She has made huge changes in her life, but still needs support.
We met R in prison after he found himself in custody for a first, one-off offence. He has worked all his life but, on release from prison, he had no access to his personal belongings, including his ID. He is motivated to get back into work and rebuild his life. R needs a birth certificate for his right-to-work documents but, due to having no money, he can not afford to buy one himself. Please can you help R to cover the costs for his ID so he can get work?
W is an ex-offender who we have been supporting to get into work after being unemployed for some time. We have secured him a job but, due to starting just after pay day, he will have to wait two weeks to get his first pay packet. W needs £40 to fill up his car so he can get to work until he is paid. Please can you help us cover the travel costs for him?
