He has a cognitive impairment but is engaging really well with professionals and is on the road to recovery from addiction. He was street homeless and now has a flat.

£200 needed for therapeutic animal sessions
We are seeking funds for therapeutic animal sessions (5 in total at £50 each). K has experienced trauma and disruption over recent years. His home-life has been severely affected by domestic violence, and he is currently living with his mother’s cousin because he does not feel safe to return to the family home. Unable to attend school due to these challenges and bullying, K has become isolated. His connection with animals provides comfort, and he aspires to study Animal Management. This funding would offer a safe, nurturing environment where he can begin to process the impact of significant trauma, including the effects of domestic abuse and the recent bereavement of losing his brother.
£200 needed for a health tracker
K has severe health conditions that significantly limit her daily activities. She uses a wheelchair and often needs a full day to recover after simple errands. Her adult daughter, who shares many of the same conditions, is also her carer. A similar energy-tracking device has already helped her daughter manage her symptoms. Funding a tracker and membership for K will help both women better understand their energy levels and coordinate essential daily tasks.
£150 needed for an electricity bill
Our client is a single man aged 62. He has been street homeless and housed through St Mungo's charity in a House of Multiple Occupation. His first language is Romanian and he is very isolated. He is not able to work due to his health conditions and is currently only receiving £413/month, the most basic amount from Universal Credit, to live off. Unfortunately, he was not aware that he had to pay for his electricity and six months after moving in he has a large bill to pay which is unaffordable.
