Grant to The Salvation Army Way Ahead Project (The WAP) (360G-HeartofEnglandCF-A549284)
We have replaced our usual community drop-in sessions with: • takeaway lunches, delivered five times a week to more than 50 rough sleepers who were identified by Warwick District Council and are now either in temporary accommodation or about to be housed • takeaway lunches for those regular WAP visitors who are struggling to buy food • foodbank vouchers and, in some cases, food parcels for those who are struggling financially and who come to our door • telephone support for the rough sleepers now in self-catered accommodation; some of them are entrenched homeless so need a lot of help adapting to their new environment • telephone support for those individuals who usually visit our communal drop-in. This support includes liaising with authorities to obtain benefits and sort out issues such as rent arrears; helping them access medical support including for mental health; and working with agencies such as the probation service on their behalf.
