After losing her job, Christine* couldn't afford her rent. Our Housing Costs Grant supported her during her job search.

The day I checked my bank account and realised I’d exhausted my savings was one of the lowest moments of my life. I couldn’t pay my rent, and I struggled to scrape together enough cash to even buy the basics. The charity awarded me a Housing Costs Grant to cover my rent, and I can’t begin to describe the relief that brought. For the first time in months, I could breathe again. Knowing the charity was there to support me felt like I’d started to turn the corner.

Patrick could no longer safely use the bathroom after a shock diagnosis. His wife Denise asked us for help with adapting their home.
“Patrick has always been active and had such a successful career as a chemical engineer. The prospect of slowly losing his independence was difficult for him to accept. We were both taken aback by the offer to help. We did not realise the Benevolent Fund could be so helpful. If you’re not sure where else to turn like we were, they’ll be there for you.”
