These may include but are not limited to the following:<\/p><p>Some elderly people, disabled people and people with serious health conditions (e.g. physical or mental impairment, are socially excluded as a result of their circumstances);<\/p><p>Those who have experienced modern slavery and/or trafficking;<\/p><p>Those who have experienced domestic abuse (to include non-violent forms of abuse (emotional, psychological etc);<\/p><p>Those with no fixed abode (e.g. Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities, rough sleepers); Vulnerable children.<\/p><p>Whilst many EU citizens may only fall under one of these categories, it is by no means an exhaustive list and it is likely that some will have multiple needs which will have to be met in a clear and accessible way.<\/p><p>The Home Office is in favour of implementing a mixed model approach, which can meet the needs of the diversity of vulnerable EU citizens, enabling a combination of offerings to give citizens the best chance of making their application.
