Hi, I'm a trans woman with a pre-existing severe case of ADHD, and I'm currently living with my partner who's currently unemployed. I got COVID back in September, which impacted my work severely as I've had to lose two weeks of work. Our financial situation before was fragile, so losing those two weeks of work meant that we're currently struggling to pay for our living expenses like my commute fare, food, gas and electric, food and incoming bills like our rent.
All I would need is enough to see us through to my next paycheck, which will return to full.
Thank you so much!

Expense policies
Expense policies
We accept claims for the cost of medications, food, transport to appointments, counselling and anything related to your transition. We also support trans, nonbinary, and intersex (TIN) folk with bills and living expenses. We do not currently accept claims for money for pet expenses.
If you are applying for the first time, please provide the first half of your postcode and a link to one of your social media accounts in the "additional invoice information" box. This is to verify your identity and prevent scammers from taking money from trans people.
Please also let us know how much you need (max. £60 per month) and what you need it for (eg. bills, food, debt etc etc) in the "additional invoice information" box.
We don't allow reoccurring grants set through open collective, we ask that you don't set your grant to reoccur automatically as it adds strain to our grant team and can create duplicate expenses.
