Grant for moving costs/buying items?

My daughter has OCD and other issues and I am her carer and on benefits. we are planning on moving and due to the fact that we have had mold in the place we currently live in in the past and her OCD, we are not going to take a lot of stuff with us if we move such as beds, sofa, tables etc. We ideally need some help to pay for various things if we move. Does anyone know any organisations that I can apply to for grant for these things / moving related costs?

Comments

  • Yes, but they are locally based charities. I don't know of a national one. I suggest that you contact the CVS of the area you are moving to, and ask them if there is a local charity which provides basic furniture for people on benefits who are having problems. http://data.navca.org.uk/members/directory
