Hi there,
so I am finally slightly getting out of my depression episode to be able to reach out for help. Last day of February I have been laid off my dream work only after 2 months being there because of funding issues of the production company. I have gotten my last pay then and paid everything I needed for March, but as we are getting closer to the end of the month I am realising I will be in extreme struggles paying my phone bill, credit cards, food, laundry, etc... At the end of this month. I have recieved some money from twitch streaming and support from my friends, but that is enough to cover my food expanses. I am worried that at the end of the month I won't have a way to pay all of my bills and I am already behind with some payments.
I should recieve student loans in third week of April but that is not fully guaranteed as the conditions of me recieving student loans are me working part time alongside my studies and show proofs of income as migrant worker every month, which I won't be able to do this month. I tried asking my phone bill company if they can't push my bill till later date when hopefully the loans will come, but they said they can't as I missed one of my payments in the last 6 months (paid few days later.) I asked for help here before and I figured this will be the next best thing I can do as I am not sure what else. I am actively looking for a part time job, and can provide you any financial evidence. I know I am asking for a lot but really anything even the small 60£ emergency grant will help. Think there are more details that I might forget but my brain has such a fog lately that I hope this all make sense, if you need anything else please let me know!
Thank you so much.

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.

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.
