£0 remaining for a travel document
A, who has moved to the UK and now has refugee status, needs to purchase a travel document, but is out of work at the moment and cannot afford it. He has a new born and a toddler to provide for, so it's a struggle for him financially. The travel document costs £280 in total so this would be most of the money towards it and he would be able to fund the rest himself with a bit of help from friends and family around him.
We have been asked if we can help this lady who was unable to afford to stay in her two bedroom flat and has moved into a studio flat with her frail husband. They have no space to store personal belongings and the temporary solution found has given them a few days to find alternative storage or her belongings will be destroyed. The lady is in her second year as a student, studying theology and religion, and cannot afford the storage costs. This will provide her with time to find a longer solution.
N suffers from various health issues such as COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and depression. His mental health deteriorated severely when he lost his job and had to move out from his flat. N, who has no family or friends around, found himself with nothing and is now living in an unfurnished flat. He started having back problems, due to sleeping on two cushions, and is desperate to get a sofa bed so he can enjoy not only a bed at night time, but also a sofa in the day time.
