£0 remaining for three months' gym membership
S, who has been waiting over two years for his refugee status, has been unable to work or claim benefits this whole time. His mental health is severe which means he struggles to get involved in many activities, and has very little money to support him day to day. S relies on charities and his volunteer host to help him when they can. He has asked for some help with joining a gym, which will give him some independence and help to improve his mental health.
This single male presented at foodbank in a state of crisis with nowhere to turn. We have been able to help him with food and fuel, as he disclosed that he had not had any heating or water for four months. At present his mental health is deteriorating and he is under the care of the Mental Health services. At present our client is sleeping on the floor in his accommodation, as he is in debt and unable to raise funds for a bed and mattress. We are kindly seeking your support.
P was just about managing in Housing Association accommodation when Covid hit. With only his pension and pension credit, he got into rent arrears and was eventually evicted. Having been in temporary accommodation since then has been difficult, but he has now secured permanent accommodation. However, it is completely unfurnished and he must start again. A bed frame would prevent P from having to sleep on the floor, and help him regain some self-esteem and confidence so that he can get back on his feet.

A fridge freezer would enable him to eat more healthily and manage his limited funds more effectively so that he can get back on his feet.
