Moving into first home - what do I need?

I am soon moving into my first ever home. I need to buy pretty much everything.

Currently I have:
Bed
Wardrobe
Bedside table
Plates
Bowls
Sofa
Vacuum cleaner

I need to get everything else. I am making a list of things I need and have most of the obvious kitchen items on there (cutlery, oven gloves, kettle etc). What else do I need? I will have a garden too. Anything I may not have thought of or anything that's been a lifesaver for you?

Charity shops are a absolute godsend when getting your own place. A decent toolkit so you can do small repairs by yourself?? Also a torch in case of power cut/electrics not working

A stepladder comes in very handy and a basic tool kit.
