This Client walked away from an abusive relationship and had managed to secure new accommodation for herself and her two children, but the brave decision to escape had cost her all of her furniture and white goods. She was sourcing pre-loved items via Freegle, Freecycle and the like, but it was slow going and there were still plenty of what most people would deem “essentials” before she would have even a basically comfortable home.
We gave her £200 so she could source necessary items closer to home.
