£0 remaining for a mobile phone
Our client has been engaging with our homeless charity since March this year. Not having a phone has made engaging with the different services; immigration, job centre and his case worker, very difficult. In order to gain more independence, and a way of communicating with those he is working with, he needs a phone. Our client is currently sleeping outside and to have a phone would also mean he could call Streetlink and outreach workers.
Our client is a child who has recently arrived from Afghanistan to reunite with the rest of his family here in the UK. Their family is solely living off of the eldest brother's benefits and is currently struggling greatly with living expenses. They need help with essentials such as food and winter clothes (jackets, jumpers and shoes) which can be costly. Additionally, we will use a portion of these funds to top up their oyster card and provide them with vouchers to spend on other necessities.
