Recipient story
Young person, aged 17 in need of clothes as a result of unfair housing instability
Domestic & Family Violence
Other hardship(s)
This is for a 17 year old young female, who has recently been kicked out of a friend's home where she was living at following an argument between them and her ex perpetrator. When she went to collect her belongings, many of these were missing including most of her clothing. This young person has been exposed to significant domestic family violence in her life, which has included sexual, physical and emotional abuse. She was supported to leave her perpetrator and access safe refuge accommodation and stayed there until offered someone to live with a friend. Unfortunately this has not worked out and she believes her possessions will not be returned and she is unwilling to go to the police for a multitude of reasons. We are supporting this young person to rebuild her life and access safe new accommodation and access more safety from her perpetrator. To help with her fresh start, funding for clothes would really help with this and improve her wellbeing, self esteem and confidence too.
