£0 remaining for food
Our applicant is a refugee who has come to the UK and is living with his wife and two children, who joined in August via Family Reunion. The family applied for Universal Credit on arrival, however, four weeks later the payment has still not been made. This has been referred to a solicitor to challenge further. However, in the interim, the family cannot afford food and essentials. We are, therefore, asking for some assistance for this family.
This request is for a lady, D, who has initially come to the country from Syria, as a refugee, and is reliant on income through benefits. This limited income is not enough to provide for her and her family. Mum has one son, aged five, and three daughters, aged eight, seven and one. Mum's eldest three children are currently in primary school and have recently started the new term. It is for this reason that mum needs your support towards school equipment and clothing for her three children.
The applicant is a young person from Syria who arrived in UK as an unaccompanied minor. He has no recourse to public funds or access to Home Office financial support, due to his immigration status. He urgently requires some funding to cover the cost of travel expenses by bus to the Home Office where he needs to report every two weeks, as well as to the college. This support would also allow him to travel by train to his solicitors' offices for the next two to three months.
Our applicant, a young person from Chad who is undocumented/appeal right exhausted, is homeless and has no recourse to public funds. He urgently needs funding to buy food and other essentials, such as phone credit and clothing. He also needs funding to cover travel expenses to his solicitors' office. Your support would allow him to buy food and travel to important appointments with his solicitors and support network, to up his Oyster card.
