Hello @Deborah11,

Welcome to the community and thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself.

I'm so happy that you're moving into a flat soon, however, I can imagine things seem very daunting right now but we are here to help and support you. Firstly, the online community team will be sending you an email shortly from our community inbox (i.e., community@scope.org.uk). We would like to offer you some additional support with regards to your situation.

With regards to furniture and whole goods, @chiarieds has mentioned some really great resources above. Facebook Marketplace also advertises local second hand furniture, as well as Gumtree.

I hope this is helpful and remember, we are here for you and would like to help in any way that we can moving forward.

Take care now.

Libby
