There is also a special form of relief for transport money. This relief is given once only and must be recommended by the social worker for people who:

• Have been told by their doctor or clinic that they need special medical treatment, but they cannot afford the transport to get to the place where they will be treated
• Have been promised a job but do not have enough money to pay for transport to reach the place of employment

What do you need in order to apply for relief?

• A document from the doctor which explains the treatment needed and where it is available
• A letter from a prospective employer confirming date and place of employment in order to substantiate the application
