Young mum with a significant history of trauma and ongoing mental health challenges. She also experienced a traumatic birth with serious complications requiring complex surgery. Following this experience, she has been diagnosed with Severe Stress Disorder, OCD, and germaphobia, which continue to impact her daily functioning and wellbeing. She is engaged in regular therapy with a psychologist and is awaiting psychiatric support. Currently experiencing financial hardship while residing in a private rental. Has recently been approved for the Rental Security Subsidy, which will provide some relief toward rent costs. Has had moisture and mould issues, resulting in her bed base and drawers going moldy. Requires bed base and drawers, a cot for her baby also support with groceries, fuel, pharmaceuticals, clothing and other essential living expenses would make a significant difference to this family during this time. Also needs a new car battery. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
