We were contacted by an agent to ask if we could help a man with learning difficulties, he has a criminal history, but since being released from prison he has successfully found full time employment and has reconnected with his family. Our agents became involved as he needed support with his housing as he was sofa surfing with no fixed address of his own. They have managed to help him get a place of his own, but of course as he has nothing to his name, finding furniture and household goods is both expensive and difficult. He has been spending pretty much all his wages on his home and getting what he needs but they realised he had no means of cooking or heating food, nor any pots and pans. So they asked if we could fund a microwave for him so at least come Christmas he can heat or cook himself a hot meal. We sent across £50 to help him do this.
