In short, if you arrive on the beach you will be put in a hostel, if you are lucky you get a room to yourself. if you are unlucky, you will be sharing. If you are really unlucky, you will be in a camp. You get meals but that is it. This is section 98 support. You should be signed up with a GP by Migrant Help. Children have a right to school. Charities might visit and sort out some clothes, shoes and a SIM card. Care for Calais do that a lot.
After 5/6 weeks, you will probably be in the same place but you will get £9.95/week for essentials. You might get relocated anywhere in the country into a shared house. You might have to share a room. You will then get £49.95/week. That is section 95.
You are not allowed to work. You do have a right to legal aid, but you have to find the lawyer. There are very few people doing legal aid work
