AIL is a single mother and full-time carer of her severely disabled five-year-old son. For many years, the family have been living in unsuitable accommodation for her son's accessibility needs and are now they are due to be evicted. They have finally been found suitable wheelchair accessible housing - however, need to move to their new unfurnished home by 14 April and require urgent financial assistance with the costs of doing so.
The property is unfurnished and AIL does not own/ cannot afford any furniture. She also does not have the money to arrange the removal her personal belongings and her son's medical equipment. Social services and the council's housing department are refusing to provide any funding to help her with the costs of the move.
Update
The Council have now agreed to assist AIL with the transport for moving. Big thank you all for your support so far. The funds will now be due to go towards furniture for their new home.
