This elderly, diabetic asylum seeker has been in the UK for thirteen years. Originally caring for her sister's children, she has suffered mistreatment. In a Local Authority hotel after rough sleeping, she lacks funds, cooking or washing facilities, and also needs diabetic appropriate food for the next few weeks, clothing and toiletries. Pending a schedule 10 application for asylum support and permanent housing, this lady (at the age of seventy seven) remains extremely vulnerable.

This father of a young family of five has unfortunately lost his job and is actively seeking work. However, they have no recourse to public funds and the family is in financial crisis. The church is currently supporting them with food parcels, but the family is losing control over its utility bills and rent.

R, a care leaver who came to the UK as a child seeking asylum, is an avid runner which helps to maintain their mental health. However, they don't have a suitable pair of trainers at the moment so are running marathons with inappropriate footwear which is causing them physical pain.

A has been living undocumented in the UK for over ten years while trying to claim asylum after surviving trafficking. She has finally been granted refugee status in the UK and has been given temporary housing by the council. Her belongings are at the house where she has been sofa surfing, and she needs help with moving her belongings into her temporary housing. This funding would cover the cost of a car to take A and her belongings to her new home.
