£60 needed for a Gas bill

A is getting help from Christians Against Poverty to sort out his debts. Whilst we are dealing with the main ones he has a small amount of debt on his prepaid gas meter which means whenever he puts some money on it is used up by the debt almost straight away. This has caused him to just stop putting money on his meter and therefore not heating his flat. We would like to raise enough to cover the debt which is £34 and then put some credit on his meter to get him ahead.
