From pillar to post

A gentleman who was quite unwell was being moved on from the hostel accommodation he has been in as he had hit the maximum stay he was permitted.  Some supported accommodation was available for him as he was so unwell and considered a priority case.  It became obvious though that he had no food, no toiletries as there had been a gap in his benefits.  We sent him £50 to cover him between his benefits payments so he could get food and essentials.
