Go to the library and find a book called 'Grants to Individuals in Need'. You can search for a local trust who will donate money to enable these people to purchase a new TV. There is no reason why they should have to acept a second hand one.

Try The Salvation Army

If you contacted Oxfam in the UK they may be able to help. They get lots of donations and maybe they'd be prepared to help the couple you mentioned.
There's also Freecycle and Gumtree also has a 'wanted and giving' away section.

I'm not sure, but you could try asking about it at the Salvation Army. If not them, at least they may be able to help you find an organization who will. Good luck and blessings! =)

Not offhand, but try watching your local freecycle, or even asking on here. People give away perfectly good tv's when they replace them
