Despite the experience of receiving charity assistance in the UK and around the world tends to be highly unpleasant and sometimes damaging for users, this study finds out that the experience at CHAI is highly pleasant and positively impactful for most recipients. To know whether feelings of stigmatisation, as a form of charitable violence, are perceived by clients when they decide to contact and be contacted by CHAI. I carried out 10 in-depth interviews and 5 participant observations. To minimise risk around informed consent. respondents were randomly chosen from a pre-selected list of potentially non-vulnerable current and past CHAI clients of The Employability and Support Services. The results showed that only 10% of participants felt unfairly judged by CHAI during the assistance process. The analysis suggests that this is a result of the deeply embedded beliefs that someone must meet the common governmental and media characterisation of looking “hopeless” to be worthy of help. On the other hand, it suggests that the main reason for high reviews on the experience may lie in the fact that CHAI assistance does not often involve handouts but usually professional advice (as opposed to findings elsewhere). Nevertheless, it found out that for most participants the true costs of receiving charity assistance often involves proving deservedness and reciprocity, which, arguably, is also a way of exercising charitable violence because users’ mental and physical health can be jeopardised.
