    Hi and welcome 

    There are some charities that help with furniture in some areas you may have to do an Internet search 

    There is some info on here as well 

    Also look on ebay and gumtree and places like that Facebook selling sites 

    British heart foundation sell second hand as do other charity shops

    @kami24 Hi you could try your local council. I understand all councils have different criteria.But it’s worth a try.

     I received white goods and a carpet. I could’ve applied for other household items but I didn’t need to as I had them.

    Good luck I hope you get some help.

    Just get in touch or go online to your council and apply for the things you do need.

    Hi @kami24 :) On top of the suggestions that have already been made, you might like to take a look at End Furniture Poverty as they have some useful information about where to source furniture. Turn2Us also have a useful page on this. Let us know if you have any luck finding some!
