Single mum with a 5 year old son facing secondary homelessness seeking support

Single mum has had almost 8 weeks in hospital and had to undergo heart surgery following an infection that impacted her ability to walk. She is now recovering and caring for her 5 year old son. Due to recent hospitalisation, she was unable to work, and is also facing secondary homelessness and is couchsurfing. She is anxious about her son going to school next year, and is worried about her financial capacity and being able to afford a tablet to help with his learning.
Young boy would benefit from a bicycle to help him get to school next year, increasing his independence, autonomy, and motivation to attend school, thereby increasing his attendance and learning opportunities.
