She’ll need at least 2 screwdrivers: one flat head; one Phillips head.

Drain unblocker. I’ve had to use this on the showers in every single house I’ve ever moved into.

[Love51]

Don't you just acquire this stuff as you go along? I've never bought Allen keys they come in the flat pack!
Teabags, kettle, toilet roll though.

[summersolstice43]

Tin opener
WD40
Foil (the amount of times I run out is unreal)

[FreezerBird]

The two essentials for life are wd40 and gaffer tape.

If it's moving and it shouldn't : gaffer tape
If it isn't moving and it should: wd40

Plunger! When I lived in rented accommodation I often seemed to find myself in need of a plunger yet I have never owned one.

A wee tool kit is great. I have vivid recollections of putting together a computer desk with a knife and a cast iron trivet.

Other than that I would suggest a bottle opener, some wine glasses and that’s it!

When I went to university my mum trawled charity shops for my kitchen kit. I had the most amazing selection of brown and orange pans and crockery. I suppose your kit will depend on what sort of accommodation she is moving in to

[Passmethecrisps]

@FreezerBird that is amazing life advice. Stealing

[mamakoukla]

Chocolate
Crisps

OP, your list is hilarious.
I can't imagine he'll survive more than a day or two without cable ties.

Does your DC even want that list?

They'll buy the things as they need them.

Apart from the very basics, such as cutlery and plates, I'd say:
A wind up torch in case there's a power cut.
Fire blanket or fire extinguisher are good ideas. As are smoke and CO detectors.

Apart from that, they'll figure it out and do let them.

Pliers
Tape measure
Washing up liquid
Hangers

And one of the other weird ones which looks like a Phillips head and isn't, I don't know what it's called.

[HollowTalk]

I'd get emergency ant powder and mouse pellets, too.

[Lweji]

Apologies for the stray "he". I shouldn't have assumed.

[AriettyHomily]

Cable ties?

Don't you just go to the shop when you need this stuff and start a drawer of shite that may one day be needed again?

[PoppySeedSaid]

Bottle of gin

[mosquitofeast]

carbon monoxide alarm, fire alarm,

[mosquitofeast]

I have never used a cable tie.....
