£0 remaining for a passport application
RT is a Ghanaian national who has lived in the UK for many years. She has been homeless for around fifteen years and has solely relied on her friends in the UK for accommodation, food and essentials. We have assisted RT to make an application for leave to remain, but she does not have any form of ID except for her birth certificate, as she has never been able to pay the fee for a new passport. Unfortunately, the Home Office does not accept birth certificates as sufficient ID for an application. Please can you help RT to get a passport?
S is a young person seeking asylum in the UK. We are supporting them with their immigration case and other positive activities e.g. youth activities and English classes. They have applied for asylum support funding for destitution relief, but this is expected to take at least one month to be processed. They urgently need financial support to cover travel costs in London to visit their solicitor and caseworker (£10 each time), as well as money for food for the month.
S is an asylum seeker. She is receiving very little financial support, and it hardly covers her food and travel. Her phone has recently broken and she does not have the means to replace it. She is trying to get legal representation for her asylum claim and apply for college. Without this, she is unable to engage with any of the above, or stay in touch with family, and this will have a real impact on her mental health and wellbeing. Having a phone keeps her connected to her community and professionals.
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 P must start again. 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.
