£0 remaining for a Tesco voucher and an Oyster card top-up
FK has recently received his asylum status and is in the process of organising housing, benefits and work. However, whilst he is transitioning to his new benefits, he will no longer be receiving support from the Home Office and will, therefore, have no means to buy food, travel and other daily necessities. We would like to buy him a £60 Tesco voucher and provide a £20 Oyster card top-up so that he can support himself for two weeks while he waits to receive Universal Credit.
