M is being supported by the community mental health team. He has become socially isolated due to an increased level of paranoia and anxiety, and seen a drop in his physical health due to having no exercise. M has agreed with his support workers to engage in a supported exercise programme, which they believe will dramatically improve his physical and mental health, but due to his limited access to funds, can't afford to pay for it. Your support would pay for a year of the programme.
