Single mother, who fled a violent relationship with her 3 children. Initially she stayed with family and friends, however, was not sustainable. The family then lived in the car and a tent in caravan parks for safety. The car broke down with no finances to repair, it was sold for a minimal amount.
They are now residing in a country town and feel supported in the caravan park. They have been offered a camper trailer to rent, however this is at a cost of $450 per week plus site fees.
The cost of keeping a roof over the children's heads, impacts on washing clothes and providing enough food for the week.
Poor hygiene and transience has seen the 14 yr old child disengaged from school, she finds it difficult to connect to peers resulting in school avoidance and low self-esteem. She would like to homeschool, but laptop is required.
Seeking Coles food vouchers and laptop. This will enable budget for clothes washing and internet access.
